1. You need to turn of MESSENGER. It's a service that is set to automatically load with Windows by default. Go to Control Panel>Admin Tools>Services and scroll down to messenger, right click and chose properties. Startup type to disabled.
2. You may have some sort of Spyware/AdWare on your HDD, use tools such as PestPatrol, SpyBot or Hijack http://www.pestpatrol.com http://www.safer-networking.org http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/index.html
