I'm still getting the same problem, anymore ideas?
It's probably installed a browser toolbar or add-on mate - have a look in your Internet Explorer - Tools - Options - Manage Add-Ons in the programs tab. Disable anything that you don't think belongs there that isn't signed by Microsoft / Adobe / usual suspects.
Also I'd recommend downloading and running Lavasoft Ad-Aware on your system as it's often been good at finding items AVG won't necessarily dig up.
Good luck.
