Its no mistake, BonziBuddy is spyware, and it is one of the worst cases, i'd just run some spyware/ad-ware removal programs, that should sort it out.

Bonzi buddy installs with things such as Kazaa!

They are nuisances and will take forever to fully remove without using good spy/adware removal tools I sugguest you read this article
