Sound like it could be a "Browser Helper". These basically don't help you, but help the company get more hits on it's homepage. They are not always flagged as spyware or adware, since they don't techincally spy or send any information to anyone ... they just change settings of certain programs.

There is a tool to remove this. Do a search for "BHO Cop". It is similar to adaware, except that this one searches and removes BHO's.

It's worth a shot.

One more piece of advice. Don't use AOL or MSN unless you absolutely have to. I know that subject has been beaten to death ... but it's good advice.
