    You could try right-clicking on your desktop and clicking "Properties". Select the "Desktop" tab, click "Customize Desktop" at the bottom and then click the "Web" tab. Uncheck anything that's checked there and click "Ok".

    You've got an adware/spyware problem. I'm sending this thread over to our experts in the Spyware/Virus/Trojan Discussion Forum. They'll get you fixed up. :)

    EDIT: Don't believe the message when they offer to "fix" it for you. It's the oldest extortion scheme in the book: they infect your computer, then offer to fix it if you pay them. You are much better off getting help right here.
