Get an anti-spyware application from a reputable vendor and scan/delete the
entries found in safe mode. AdAware and Spybot S&D are both good. Remember
to update them before doing your scan though.

Have you tried to run the scan in safe mode? Without more information
there's not much more to add though you could also try a couple of freeware
scanners with updated definitions. Your troubles ooze of spyware/malware
infestation and are likely the root of this problem.
