Best thing to do is re-start the computer if you haven't already.

Always a good idea to start by making sure it isn't infected with some form of spyware. I suggest downloading the free versions of:

Malwarebytes:

free

SuperAntiSpyware:

...and running them one after the other.

You will probably be surprised what is lurking on your system.

That will help a lot. If you still have trouble tomorrow, please let me know. Been up for more than 36 hours testing new software, so I will be out of service for a while.
