That shouldn't be. I know that whenever I had that issue it drove me insane. I could never really find the culprit. I always suspected spyware/viruses, because if I reloaded Windows that problem never happened again. I would recommend running HiJackThis and submitting your resulting log file to a parser site or have someone look at it for you.
