  Your computer is displaying behavior commonly associated with an infection of some sort.
  
  Have you run full system scans while in Safe Mode using your currently installed anti-virus software? You DO have something installed, right?
  
  While the scan is running, ask yourself what you were doing just before you noticed this behavior. Perhaps you visited a site or had a popup window tell you to click yes or no? Maybe even you clicked a link in an email?

    It is being infacted with malware software. try download microsoft free malware software and scan it, it will remove it.
    Second option: try paid best software from enigmasoftware.com , before you buy you can scan your software with their software.
