Sounds like you have Spyware/Adware/Malware on your computer. You're going to need to do some vigorous scanning to remove.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spyware

The programs that I recommend are:
Spybot Search and Destroy
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/

Ad-Aware
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

And then to prevent the junk from getting on your computer in the future

Spywareblaster
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

It's going to take a few scans so make sure you have lots of time to work in this.

Heres a real good article by Kim Komando that has 6 sets to secure a PC. Personally, I don't do the step for updating the hosts file.
