    nah hackers wouldnt do anything that dumb... its most likely spyware. download a good spyware scanner and scan your laptop

    Hi,

    I strongly advice you to download Zone Alarm for free, from www.zonelabs.com. It is a free home version.
    Next, make sure you are protected with adaware. (www.adaware.com or search Adaware in google). Scan with it and eliminate threats.
    Do you have an Antivirus? AVG's Free Antivirus is fine. (Search AVG Free Download in Google).

    Install those programs and reply!
