absolutely, contact your IT staff, and make sure your manager is aware there's a problem. no reason why you should get some infected POS when just starting a new job!!!

in fact, they should have re-built that machine before handing it off to you. if there's no IT staff, then it's not hard to take care of that yourself....there's been real good advice so far, so i won't repeat it all, but spybot and ad-aware should definitely take care of that problem. it's obviously some spyware that's hijacking your stuff.

do Windows Update at least every week too, that's crucial. you should be good to go, but feel free to pm me too if you have any questions!
