You may already know this but many people don't so...

You can close windows as fast as they pop up by holding down the ALT key and hitting F4

This won't solve your root problem but it may help to break the chain of self propagating windows.

Also open up the task manager before you open your browser. Go through the processes part and see which program is working that doesn't look like it should be there when the windows are opening up. Right click it and end the process on it to see if this stops your windows from opening rapidly. If so go in and do a search for that program in your PC and delete the file.

I had the same problem, a friend told me to use windows live onecare, you can get a free 90day subscription. I used it and it cleared mine. When my free sub ran out I found it online for $50 but went to Walmart and found it for $25. You can load it from the disc and clean your machine.

I had the same problem a few years back, then someone recommended i use AVAST(antivirus) and AD-AWARE(cookie destroyer), both are FREE and work very well.

The advast home lets me know if i stumbled into a bad site, and then i manually set up a restart scan to clean my system.( I do a restart scan once a month)
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

Ad-aware free, i use to scan my system to rid any hidden cookies(I do this at least once a week), and its what i would use to remove the cookie thats causing your problem.
