How do I fix this? When I launch Internet Explorer...?

Question

Whenever I launch Internet explorer, I get a message that says:
"A program on your computer has corrupted your default search provider settings for Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer has reset this setting to your original search provider. Internet Explorer will now open Search Settings where you can change this setting" .
Then Search Settings opens and there's this box that says "click this box to prevent programs from changing your default search provider settings in the future" so I click it but still every time I launch Internet Explorer, I get the same annoying message and it won't let me use Internet Explorer until I go through this same stupid thing EVERY TIME I GET ONLINE. Someone please help me before I throw my laptop.

...Don't use Internet Explorer anymore!!! I recommend you to use firefox. Use internet explorer one last time to download Firefox on your computer, it's exactly like the internet but BETTER, less pop-ups and it sorta loads faster my opinion. Plus Firefox has a new updates every now and then which makes it even better.
