It sounds like you've installed a toolbar or some other program that has given you this awesome feature!

Go into control panel, add/remove programs, then see what the most recently installed programs are. Chances are it's one of them causing the problem.
 
You could also try looking through the Browser add-ons and stopping them all in turn to see if any of those are causing it.

Do not use Chrome if you use your PC for Banking or credit card payment.
 
Run that by me in English Old Git Speak;)
So, if you are usng Internet Explorer go to Tools, Internet Options, Programs, Manage Add-ons.
Thhis lists all the extra bits of software installed in Internet Explorer which are most legit and useful, soemtimes not. You can work thrugh those that look odd and disable them one by one to see if any of those are causing it. If you work out which one it is by name, you can then try to unsinstall it via add/remove progarms or google for more advice on how to remove it.
