Multiple browsers opening

Whenever I open an attachment from my e-mail, multiple browser headers keep opening up on my computer. I have to restart my computer to get it to stop.

Please help!

If you are opening e-mail attachments

with your e-mail program then there is a strong possibility that you have a virus/trojan/etc. That is just a guess with the tiny bit of information that you offered. I would scan with your antivirus program and also Spybot S&D, Ad-AWare SE, and ewido at the very least.
