   Malware. I bet it's malware. Some sort of Trojan or keyboard logger.   
      
   I have examined a dozen or so SOHO networks without adequate protection   
   (three to five stations, p2p, everyone on it completely clueless). All,   
   without exception, were clogged with serious malware. We ain't talking   
   tracking cookies here -- we are talking Trojans, loggers, viruses,   
   hijackers installed and running *simultaneously*.   
      
   Of course that was XP Pro, and Vista is supposed to prevent this natively.   
   Then again, XP Pro was supposed to prevent this natively.   
      
      
   My 2 cents,
