try these to make sure its not spyware or virus.
ownload and install the newest version (1.3) of SpyBot Search and Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html - Note: If you have been using SpyBot S&D for some time, chances are you have version 1.2. For some unknown reason, the 1.2’s update feature does not alert you to the new version so you must download and install the new from the link above. Also, download and install AdAware http://lavasoft.element5.com/support/download/ - there are free versions of each. Before scanning, use each programs’ update option to get the latest signature files, then scan, using SpyBot first.

a² Free is also a good malware cleaner and can be downloaded from: http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/download/?

Use one of these free on-line scanners (note some spyware,viruses and trojins have been known to disable PC based AV scanners):
