Hi !
Looks like you've got infected with malware, which of course you'll want to get rid of. Go to the 3-bar menu => Addons => Extensions and look for any unfamiliar or suspicious looking extensions. When you find any : remove them.
Also look in : 3-bar menu (or 'Tools') => Options => Advanced => Network tab => Under : 'Offline Web Content and User Data'
Do the same in Windows' Control Panel => Programs.
However : most malware will be 'hiding' somewhere , so let's run malware scans :
Further information can be found in this article :

Run most or all of the listed malware scanners.
They all work differently - what one program doesn't pick up, the other might.
