Thats because you have a spyware in your machine. What you mentioned is called as browser hijacking. Install a good anti-spyware such as Adaware or spybot search and destroy. Run it once let it find all the spyware on ur machine and then remove them. Restart ur system once this is done and you shouldnt have this problem anymore.
