Ah,
You have a nasty little bug.. not a virus, but psyware (aka malware aka ad ware).
You'll need to use some software to remove it.. AdAware is really good, and nice and simple to use.. you can get this at http://www.lavasoft.com
First, you need to clear your cache in IE.. tools | internet options | delete files
Then, close all your explorer windows. make sure Adaware has all the most recent updates, and then run it.. You WILL get alot of stuff found, so don't panic by the sheer numbers of it!
Spy bot is also very good.. but not quite so simple to use..
let me know if you still have problems.
