    Marez5 it sounds to me like some spyware protection is needed here. You mentioned that you have anti-virus, please make sure it is updated and go ahead and take the time to run a full scan of the system. Correct anything it finds then you will want to download Spybot Search and Destroy. It is a free program unless you choose to donate to the creator. It can be downloaded at www.safer-networking.net . Read and follow the instructions and lets see if it can remove the problem. If you want step by step instructions on running Spybot S&D please email me. There is also the possibility that you have Smitfraud. That is a combonation virus and spyware infection. Try what I have given you so far and then let us know your progress and we can go from that point on.

    What Anti-Virus software are you using? If it is not totally up to date you will get a popup from windows but this sounds like you might have the virus called SmitFraud. It is hard to remove but can be done...go here and follow the instructions...
