Happens whether or not you are connected to the internet? When you first boot-up, open Task Manager and see what processes and apps are running - anything look unfamiliar to you? Open msconfig (Start menu --> Run, and there type: MSCONFIG) and check to see what is checked on the Startup tabbed page for auto-start. Anything there unfamiliar to you? How old is the computer? When did you last scan for vires & malware? I assume you use a firewall when you connect to the internet?
