#1 rule, never and i mean NEVER use internet explorer; especially if you're just surfing online

if its malware(ex. spyware, trojans, etc) install comodo antimalware (aka bo clean) from comodo.com and it will get rid of it during your next reboot after installing it

hm sounds like your software has taken quite a blow.

you could get some antivirus programs to clean your pc, then repair the software if needed, but it might be easier, faster and efficienter to just format -> reinstall windows. copy your important files to a seperate HDD or USB stick, burn on a disc whatever. at least you'll be sure the virus is gone. first thing to do once the reinstall is finished: download firefox.
