instead of 'http://www.4318.com'
replace it with 'about:blank'
That sounds like hijacker. May want to install this:

as well as

http://www.lavasoft.de
and run full scans with all of them.

This is called browser hijacking. Since the browser is hijacked it is possible your pc might be infested with virus. I recommend you use any one of these to get rid of hijacking & virus.
1. Windows defender (A free tool from Microsoft. Works great but your copy of windows has to be genuine)
2. Norton Internet Security (A very effective tool but very costly)
3. Ad-Aware Personal Edition or spybot
Above are ordered in the order of most effective to lesser effective.

Its Simple and accurate:
Try these steps
1) open your internet explorer
2) Go to tools menu
3) click on" Internet Options".
4) In the general tab ( or section ) click on " USE BLANK " button and save ...... thats it
If it doesn't work just tell inform me

Ordenadores para trabajar o para jugar, simples o muy avanzados, siempre a los mejores precios en los sitios web, mi viejo ordenador, también comprado en los sitios web me gustaba mucho pero necesitaba algo más eficiente y más silencioso, el ordenador que compre cumple todas mis expectativas, además de ser muy rápido, con una buena capacidad de almacenaje, es increíblemente silencioso, lo he probado por la noche, en un silencio total y ni no parecía que estaba funcionando, una excelente compra.

Better to re-install your OS and start fresh with a good anti-virus.
Free anti-viruses also works like AVG, etc. You can download them from internet.
