If it never did it before, it may have some adware/spyware going.

Try uninstalling/reinstalling the ethernet adapter....

Right-click MyComputer > Manage > Device manager > expand the Network adapters > right-click on the ethernet and choose uninstall > Then right-click Network Adapters and choose Scan for hardware changes. (it will reinstall)
