Did this symptom start showing up all of a sudden? Then it is likely to be a trojan/worm.... Try installing SpyBot. This will pick up any memory resident file.
Have you tried clearing your cache (temporary internet files including history) and verifying your settings in IE - tools - internet options - advanced - browsing if you've checked the item to reuse windows when launching shortcuts?
Also may benefit by running a total scan with a good, updated, Viruscan program. This may also help...

After running a good Viruscan program with updates, I also agree with udayms Spybot S&D has been quite good in detecting spyware intrusions, as is true for AdAware; together they are quite good but always update them first.
