      Unfortunately, IE launching popup-ad windows is an all too common occurence these days. Its not a DLL that is the culprit but embedded script and/or an ActiveX control. One thing you can do is to change your browser's security settings. By default, most items are set to Enable, where they should actually be Disable or Prompt. Another is to install an ad-blocker program. These are just BHOs (Browser Helper Objects). Some are good while others aren't.

        Haven't you been visiting pr0n sites lately ? or serialz sites ? ;P It's very likely the plugin registers as the default IE/Explorer search extension : check out weird values in HKCR\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer and HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer. Look up those subkeys : - Main - Search - Toolbar - Extensions
