Here's what I suggest that you do. You may have malware or possibly even a rootkit, but we should start at the beginning, and diagnose all problems. To get started, I recommend that you follow CastleCops' Malware Removal and Prevention procedure, a new system CastleCops devised to enable users to either partially, or fully clean their systems without the direct aid of an expert.

You will find the Malware Removal and Prevention Procedure here:

http://wiki.castlecops.com/Malware_Removal_and_Prevention:_Introduction

If that doesn't fix the problem, then go to this Forum, read the instructions at the top of the page carefully:

CastleCops Link/f67-Hijackthis_Spyware_Viruses_Worms_Trojans_Oh_My.html

Follow these instructions:

CastleCops Link/t102301-Hijackthis_Guidelines_Read_Before_Posting.html

and one of CC's trained 1st Responders or Security Experts will help you. You must join CastleCops as a member to be helped in the HJT Forum. If they determine that you do have a rootkit that requires our assistance, you will then be referred back to this forum for more help. This way, you can have your system comprehensively and systematically cleaned of all malware and rootkits if there are any.

You might also want to read this to learn more about rootkits:
