Dump Spybot and download and scan your machine with one of these GOOD anti-spyware /adware programs.
Spybot was once a great program, but unfortunately has seen better days.

most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.
i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.
besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.
download firefox for free, Just have a try:

Might just be corrupted, on you might have a virus or Trojan that's messing with it.
Try Ad-Aware and CounterSpy (trial)
Also try uninstalling it and re-installing it
I have a site that will probably help you out:
