Sounds like you have spyware installed. Do a search for "spybot search & destroy" or "ad-aware". Download either of these. Update them and run them. That should help.

In Internet Explorer click on the menu item "Tools" then choose "Internet Options" from the menu list.
Then click the "General" tab and find "Search" on the page and click "Settings" In the next screen is a list of all search engines that have been selected for use on your PC. Delete any you don't ever want to use and choose Google and set it as the default. When done, click "OK" and "Done" on the next page. That should reset your default search engine.

I see your using Internet Explorer.
Sounds like you have a BHO (Browser Helper Object). There is many programs you could use to help you with this but when I used Internet Explorer (a long time ago) I would use Hijack This which can Identify your list of BHO's and you can maybe identify your problem. I think you can use Spybot Search and Destroy also.
