You need a spyware scan, such a yahoo anti spyware, windows defender spybot, or one of the many others. I strongly would suggest have two different spyware scans. Different spyware scan programs, pick up on things that the other was not. And that is the same for anti-virus programs.

Try Adaware, Spybot, Windows Defender. If it's a more malicious spyware, talk to one of the big anti-spyware communities. Submit to them a HijackThis analysis log and they can help you morel.

you can download the yahoo tool bar the yellow box that has what looks like a bulls-eye will remove them.
or..
you can download the free version of zone alarm firewall.
the trial comes with a spy-ware scanner and will also remove ad-ware
FYI porn, game and serial sites are the most common places people pick them up...
