Maybe you are infected with a virus?? Ensure u r running a good antivirus with latest definitions...

Also, download HijackThis from *www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html, run it and "Do a system scan and save a logfile" and post the logfile here...

It seems that you are running AVG antivirus and a virus similar to Win32.hidrag has affected your computer. This virus attaches itself to .exe files and corrupts it. Try installing another antivirus like avast, kaspersky or Norton and do a full system scan.
