Yep you've got some sort of spyware / adware running there.  Update your system, use Microsoft's Adware removal tool then scan with a variety of adware removers like AdAware and Spybot.\n\nYou need to scan multiple times because some will miss a file that another will pick up.  Also, try using some virus protection.

i would double check first and download an alternative anti-spy like the free Adware. maybe you should also consider an upgrade to xp.

ou, seems u have some bugs in your computer, get yourself some  anti spyware/adaware or antivirus what kills this thing...\nIf you are using Windows then Windows Defender can do the job, or get yourself Netscape 8.1, what also has a spyware or something like that killer, by the way, Netscape 8.1, scans downloaded files for viruses and kills them emedialitely, if found.

First try going to safe mode then shut down and restart. While in safe mode scan for virus and spyware. Next try a system restore.\nIf that doesn't work go to the website below to look for a restore disc.

Because your computer has been hi-jacked.  You most likely downloaded something  that is supposed to be free, like smileys or screen savers.  This allowed mal-ware, ad-ware, or spy-ware into your system.  It's almost impossible to get rid of once this happens.  You need to find a shredding program, that is about your only help.  Find a local comptuer Doctor and get an estimate on how much they will charge to fix the problem.  This happened to us and we never did get rid of it, it  sucks.\n\nI tried downloading all of the free spy-ware removal programs, none of them worked for us, hopefully one will work for you.

It works fine on 3 of my computers.  I would try and reinstall it.  Also check for spyware and hard drive errors before reinstalling it if you have the means.

Okay, there are many things that could be wrong and many things which can fix it.\n\nI. Problem: You might have spyware\n   Solution: Download and run Ad-Aware from Lavasoft. It's best free one out there. Download it from: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/products/select_your_product.php\nJust run through the program and it will remove any spyware for free.\n\nII. Problem: You might have a virus\n    Solution: Check if you have a virus by running Trend Micro's free online virus scan. Check by going to this site: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/\nIf you have a virus, you will have to buy an antivirus. If you ask any professional IT, they'll recommend Trend Micro's antivirus; it not that expensive, either.\n\nIII. Problem: You might have too many programs running in the background\n    Solution: Remove Extra Features: 1) Goto the start menu and press "RUN". 2) Type "msconfig" in the space provided and press enter. A new window will appear. 3) Press the tab named "Startup". 4) You will see many programs with a check by them. Those checked programs start running when you turn on your computer. Look at the bottom right side of your screen, each icon you see symbolizes one open program that is unnecessarily running in the background. And if there are a lot of programs running you'll see an arrow pointing left which, if clicked, will show you all your programs running. Okay, back the the window: If you uncheck programs that you KNOW are unnecessarily to run all the time, you should uncheck them. Programs you should leave checked are things like you antivirus, iPod/iTunes software, or anything that you don't know what it is. 5) Press okay and reboot your system.\n\nIV. Problem: Your computer's fancy taskbar and cool looking stuff takes up a lot of memory (Only do this step if you have Windows XP).\n     Solution: 1) Goto your desktop. 2) Right click it and select "Properties". A window will appear. 3) Goto the "Appearance" tab. 4) You will find the text: "Windows and buttons" with a drop down box below it. Click the box and select "Windows Classic style" 5) Press "OK".\n\nBy now, your computer and internet should be really, really fast. Enjoy.

There are endless things that can go wrong with Windows, although A good anti-spyware can sure help. It just so happens that our favorite geek of them all (Billy boy Gates) has a "Beta" version of their new "Anti-spyware out. But wait til' you hear the best parts. Its FREE and it works great !!!! Bill Gates is, in fact, one of the "good guys" and rumor has it, he is going to war against these "Spyware" creeps. Right now its free, but probably not for long,, so hurry.\n\n PS: XP sp2 can sometimes fix problems, but not always. The BEST way to fix "Windows" and most computer geeks will agree, Is to do a "Re-build". Yes that means re-loading windows and losing all your files. You could save all your files first as a back-up. The problem is, if the back up files are infected. When you re-load them, all your work will have been in vain. Ya see, once something gets writen to the "Registry" it is VERY hard to get it off your machine. Remember, when you delete a file or files, the computer does NOT wipe it clean. All that is done is a "0" is writen in front of the files so the computer simply ignors it.After years of bad files on and off of the computer, this "Bad Seed" is formed. Or as said in the "olds school" days,, "The Ghost in the Machine". But before you re-load Windows, ALWAYS try the easy ways first, Try the "Microsoft" anti-spyware and stay away from music sites such as "Kazaa" and remember,,, MOST sites today contain spyware. Also try "Norton System Works 2002" Its NOT an anti-virus program. Its a "Fix-it program" people alway confuse it with being an Anti-virus progame because its the "Norton company".........\n\n Its like they always say..."If something to good to be true, then it probably is" Not much is free on the net today. You either pay in cash, or in headaches, such as Spywares.

Do you have anti-virus software installed?  Go out and buy Norton AV or McAfee or something similar.  In addition to that, install a good anti-spyware program.  Ad-Aware SE and SpyBot S & D are both great and cost nothing.  Ad-Aware is available from www.lavasoft.com.  Do a web search for SpyBot S & D.  Good luck.
