    Definately sounds like Coolwebsearch or a variant of, d/l and run CWShredder straight away!

    Go way I found of stopping alot of spyware is todo 2 things.
    I got ZoneAlarm http://www.zonelabs.com as a firewall (its free) and that pretty much stops spyware getting in and in the Pro version which you have to buy you get a pop-up blocker and it's not just a gimmicky one, it actually works and I also change my browser. IE is really vulnerable, something like Firefox is much more secure.
