Liz,
Such behaviour is often associated with a PC hosting unwanted malware.
Carry out formal scans using both your preferred AV application (with
current updated signatures) and also anti scumware tools such as SpyBot
Search & Destroy, AdAware, CWShredder, BHODemon, etc. and then if all else
fails scan your system using HiJackThis.
