Thank goodness you decided to use "laymans" language to describe your
problem. I can't tell you how many posters try to use fancy terminology that
they don't understand which makes their questions almost unintelligible.

You will continue to experience problems until you learn how to protect your
computer from viruses. You have a trojan on your computer:
