Sounds like a HiJacker to me. I had the same problem a few months ago. How did you conclude this could not be it, if you have no spyware or virus protection. I would suggest downloading free versions of Spybot and maybe Ad-Aware. I use both of them and they seem to fix most problems other than viruses. I would definitely look into getting some kind of virus program. And scan anything you download.
I knew someone who didnt have any virus protection. After a couple years his computer wouldnt work anymore. We put a virus program on there and there were like 300 viruses on his pc. We decided it would be best to just throw the thing away because our friend looking at it just got done getting his degree in computer science and networking and all that good stuff so its not like he didnt know what he was doing.
