Sounds like you either have some Adware. You can search for adware using
Ad-Aware (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware) or SpyBot
(http://www.safer-networking.org/)

Can anyone help. I cannot seem to shake a start up address in my web browser. I change it, delete it through setup method, but each time I switch off then boot up, it takes up the unwanted start up address again. It's driving me to distraction.
Grateful for any advice.
