1) Please don't type in ALL CAPS, it's SHOUTING.

2) You have SPYWARE. 

Go to www.lavasoftusa.com .  Download AdAware.  Install it, open it, UPDATE IT, run it.  Delete everything that it finds.  Note - download the FREE version. 
 
Go to http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx .  Download Microsoft AntiSpyware.  Install it, open it, UPDATE IT, run it.  Delete everything it finds.

You do not want this on your computer.   It is part of the spyware infection called newdot.net   See the following:
 
 
You might also want to get rid of any other spyware/malware that you have on your computer.  Download, install, update, and run the free versions of Ad-Aware and Spybot and let these programs remove all of the garbage that they find.

If these programs don't solve the problem, go Here and follow the directions to download and run the analysis tool called HijackThis. Generate a log file, then open it and copy and paste the text of the log file in a message in the HijackThis forum where a HijackThis expert can offer advice on how to fix the problem.
