Your PC is infected with a brower hijacker. Use these scans to remove it.

Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

Your Internet home page has been what we say "hijacked" A web site you visited has changed your web site to go to theirs instead of yours, even if you change it back when you restart it will take you to their own site again. DON'T click anything on the page they are sending you to!!!!
There is a program called "hijackthis" which can remedy this problem. Read the information at the below site and then download and run the program. This should resolve the problem!
If not feel free to email me to try and sort out the problem.
Also do also do what other readers have suggested and download both "spybot search and destroy" and "adaware"
These programs although excellent will quit often miss hijack this or if it does find it won't be able to remove it.
Also never pay for a product to remove this pest everything is available for free!
Good Luck

Yeah, definately sounds like spyware. If Adaware and anti-virus don't work, download "Hijack This" and see if you can find out what is hijacking your home page.

sounds like you have spy-ware on your computer. download ad-aware, and run that, also run your anti-virus software. and another utility you may want to download is c cleaner or windows cleanup
