Go to symantec.com and run a scan. If there are any viruses or spyware, it'll say so. Don't use IE, use Firefox instead.

(1) If you have not already scanned your comp with spybot do that now .Update it and then run it so it gets rid of all the spyware and trojans in safe mode
(2) Do an online virus scan to check if you still have any other viruses in your computer. And let us know if the online virus scan still finds any virus or spyware .
(3) Get you self a good antivirus or a free one if your present anti virus is not protecting you .
If you still have problems you will need expert Spyware, Popup, and Hijacker removal assistance, do not hesitate to
then visit the HijackThis Logs and Analysis forum.

It happened on my computer too. It's probaly a downloaded file if you fileshare or download from the internet. Run your antivirus once or twice and it should be deleted of at least put in the quarentine folder.

Close all websites and restart your computer. If not, get spybot search and destroy at download.com
