    it sounds like you have spyware on your computer, there are several options:
    1. download windows defender and run a scan to get rid of your spyware,http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx
    2. run this powerful online scanner, which you will need internet explorer for, http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
    if that scanner doesn't work use this one, it is just as good, http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/default.asp?langid=ie&venid=sym , you will also need to use internet explorer to perform this online scan.

    post back to tell me when you have done at least one of these steps.

    kk no problem, be glad to help you and anyone with virus problems. Don't worry about this thread, you only need to close threads if you doubled posted, not sure if you did or not, and if you abused the rules.
    Don't worry.
