Recently on my comp some websites opens by themselves. These are no popups.
Looks like explorer opens new window and site is loading.
How to prevent it?

Install, update and scan your system with this:

See what it comes up with.

I assume you mean Ashampoo WinOptimizer. No, it's not the same.
WinOptimizer is more comparable to something like Norton SystemWorks.
Microsoft AntiSpyware scans your system for adware and spyware, which
may be the source of your recent problems.
