Naughty browser. !
i guess you got some ad-wares/spywares from kazzaa or like programs.
try to remove all of those manually if u can or get some anti spywares softwares that do that.
or else format your computer = best way
or .. hmmm i can help you personally if i have some time in the evening

And if it's good or bad porn. Seen too many crappy sites with a bunch of old stepped on* photos.
*by stepped on I mean sites plastering their logo over someone elses work calling it exclusive.
