This may be caused by spyware/malware that's gotten installed on
your system. Use Ad-Aware, Windows Defender and/or Spybot Search & Destroy
to remove it.

Also download a winsock repair tool, to have just in case cleaning up
anything found breaks it -

If no joy, in IE go to Tools...Internet Options...Advanced tab, Browsing
section, uncheck "Enable third-party browser extensions", click Apply, click
Okay, reboot. If that solves your problem, then more troubleshooting is
needed to find out exactly which program, or Browser Helper Object (BHO) is
causing this problem. You don't want to leave it at that, as some BHOs are
useful or necessary - like Adobe Acrobat for reading .pdf files or an
essential component of Norton AV. Get BHODemon -

Disable all items, and then gradually replace one or two at a time to narrow
down the culprit.

If all the above fails, then the problem could be something new that the
spyware cleaners above don't have in their databases yet. In that case....

I have seen this before with my Corp images. The problem is usually
caused by addin or pluggins to IE. In my case it Windows Live toolbar
was causing the problem. Try going to Tools Manage Add-ons and
disable each one untill your problem stops. Then start renabling the
others.
