Hi Steve:
This is called Adware or Spyware, you probably picked up from a free screen
saver or game or something like that. If you like you can visit the
following web site and down load the Spybot Search and Destroy tool. which
should remove this nuisance for you:

Its free or for a small donation if you like.
Good luck, dad2ten
