    Have you tried looking for Spyware? Suggest you run Spybot and/or Adaware...........sounds like you have some internet aware programme running - what does it want you to download?

    I agree with Beggarall you seem to have some spyware in your puter. To get Spybot Search & Destroy go here. Once installed check for updates first. Then click on "check for problems," and "fix problems" once it has finished checking.

    What version, Duo maXell, do you have of Ad Aware? If the current version run it but also download and install Spybot because what Ad Aware doesn't find Spybot will. Plus Spybot is better, IMO, in that it's more straight forward on what to get rid of.
