You said you use a "few maintenance tools". Which ones?

This could be a malware infection of some kind but it could also be a corrupted user 
profile. Easiest way to check is to create a new user and see if the same problem 
occurs. If not then you can copy data form the old, corrupted user to the new one 
and once you are satisfied everything is okay, delete the old user. See here for 
info on how to do this:

If it's not a corrupted user, start here to check for malware:
