It def sounds like a spyware problem.  I ran into the same problem.  Either download that spyware program they recommended above/below, or I used  PC TOOLS SPYWARE DOCTOR.  It has a free version and it runs and protects my computer great! :)

Answer 4

1. Open Task Manager and kill the active lphcp*********.exe process

2. Delete (SHIFT+DELETE) all the temporary files from C:\Documents and Settings\<user_name>\Local Settings\Temp

3. Delete (SHIFT+DELETE) the following files from C:\windows\system32: phcp********.bmp, lphcp********.exe and blphcp********.scr. Get them by sorting the files in C:\windows\system32 by the 'last-modified date'.

Desktop background is also hijacked and explorer frequently crashes whenever you try to search files on your hard-drive. To get rid off them I run SpyBot S&D and fix the registry changes it detects.

Spybot S&D:

Download, install, update and Immunize, then click 'Check for problems' then when complete select all and then 'Fix Checked'

Then download:

Spyware Doctor Free Basic Edition - Realtime monitoring:
