the 3 tools that can/will solve your issues are Hijackthis, malwarebytes, and a good anti virus program.
go to control panel / programs and see if you can uninstall stuff that got put there inadvertently.
What I can stand is that many legit programs are in bed with others and so installing their program, the check box is already ticked to install some other browser plugin or program.
Many times, when you click express install, it installs all the extra crap you didn't ask for. I found, you need to go to "custom" install to be able to unselect the rubbish.
I would imagine you've got heaps of crap installed. Remember the general golden rule. Nothing is free on the net. (without a catch)
