Jolly good that man!
But why would you want an MCP certificate? (MCP == Male Chauvinist Pig)?
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Ah ah! very good.

Well done!
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

Congratulations , even if I don't understand what has to do the C# programming language with the Malayan Communist Party.

Go to windows update and do a check for updates. See what it tells you. If it is nothing, then sounds like you have malware on your box. Given what you tell us, it sounds like malware.

Thanks, that's what I thought, AVG hasn't picked it up though

It's not happening to me in Chrome or FF, so I would suspect it's malware.

Thanks, do you know of any ( preferably free ) malware get ridders ?

Unlike Anti-Virus programs where you should only use one, in terms of anti-malware you should use more than one. Include MalwareBytes and SuperAntiSpyware in your arsenal. Both have free versions available. These and others you can download via here ... http://filehippo.com/software/antimalware/antispyware/[^]

Just looking at that "Supper Anti-Spyware" it looks like most fake antivirus stuff.
According to Wikipedia, PC Magazine reported it had the lowest detection rate and removal of the ones they tested.
A problem with Multiple scanners on a system is system performance.and sometimes the other things they install while they are at it.
True, No single offering can catch everything.

That product certainly is not a fake, but don't take my word for it. It may not be the world's best, but it has its uses considering that no single product, as you say, catches everything.

as many ligit and other sites that have it available I would assume it would be a real product.
It is getting harder to tell, you have to check reviews before downloading any of them these days.

|

yes you most likely got hit by a drive by download,
First disconnect from the internet, as some of these things are calling home while you are trying to clean them they reinfect you.
Next delete the temporary internet files, sometimes that is engough to get rid of them.
then check add remove programs (programs and features) for any new tool bars that may have got added.
Or any new junk ware.
Check IE and Firefox for any Add Ons.
Next run Sysinternals Autoruns and check for anything that may look like malware.

Next check for any new Task thru Task Scheduler, or WMI task.
As long as it did not install a driver or service you should find it in one of these places.

I recommend replacing your hosts file[^].
IMHO, it should be your first line of defense against popups and unwanted ads. I don't use any ad or popup blockers (but have replaced my hosts file) and have yet to be hit by a virus or malware.
