You don't say what OS you're using (10.4.x, 10.5.x, 10.6.x) or what browser you're using. I'll just tell you what to try if you were running SL (10.6.x) and using Safari...
Try going into Safari>Preferences>General Tab and uncheck the box at the bottom. Not sure that solves it, but it's my best guess until you provide more info and someone else comes along with a better answer.
