it's definitely adware
u can install a few good free anti-virus softwares
1. Spybot Search and Destroy
2. Ad-aware SE personal
3. Windows Defender
4. AVG Anti-Virus

On the Internet Explorer Tools menu, click Internet Options.
you may find a field named Address box, and the following buttons
Use Current
Use Default
Use Blank
Click on Use Blank Button.
You will not get that page here after when u open the explorer again.

Your browser has been hijacked.
You need to use a tool that can fix this problem
Two tools can help (there are probably many more)
Browser Hijack Recover
Hijack This
You can download BHR from tucows
http://www.tucows.com/preview/378682
Follow the instructions.
When you get your browser cleaned up, get AV software and a firewall like ZoneAlarm and be more careful in future.

your homepage was hijacked by spyware. fastest way to fix is open internet explorer go to >> tools >> internet options >> and then change your homepage back to what you want and save. This should help for now.. After that do a google search for ad aware.

Sounds like a spyware issue... If you can't access it on your computer, go to www.lavasoft.com or search for AdAware and upload onto a USB drive. It is a program that searches for and deletes spyware/adware.

Go to download.com and search for
"spybot search and destroy"
"Adware personal"
download and use them, they are both free.
It's no doubt adware.
