Did you run MalwareBytes?
Do you want free sites for anti virus software?
IMPORTANT only have one anti virus installed on your computer.

What EXACTLY did you remove?
Try using firefox for now ~
http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/
Download SPYBOT

update, IMMUNISE and scan (Immunise will help protect when using browsers ~ install firefox FIRST though):idea:0 -
Is the stuff you deleted still in recycle bin so you can restore it?
Maybe try a thread like this http://askbobrankin.com/cannot_access_secure_sites.html
especially the bit lower down about port 443.0 -
the stuff i deleted is gone. i was trying to delete something called freeze.com. not sure where it came from but it is a screensaver thing it didn't go though:j Proud mum to Jade age 10 years and Baby Ellie born Christmas Day:eek: with a broke heart

if it still doesnt work, the money saving expert way would be to completely format your computer so its like how you first got it (but back up the stuff you need first)
if your not to sure about that method, ask at a computer shop (prefibly somewhere local and not pc world etc) how much it will cost to fix, but save your docs etc to a flash drive, its easy to do just copy and paste them over.0
