Hi Dee,

What you have seems to be a spyware program. I would recommend Spybot Search
and Destroy to remove it. It is an excellent program, although third-party
(so Microsoft will not provide support for it.) I use it myself, and have
never had problems. You can download it here:

If that does not work, feel free to post back for more help.
