Problems with IE on my laptop - virus??

Hi
Just wanted to update and thank you all. I downloaded the superantispyware onto a memory stick and used it on my computer. It found over 300 adware, malware and trojan things! :eek:
Then I downloaded the McAfee removal tool and followed the instructions to remove that. Then I downloaded Malwarebytes which found 3 trojans, Avast which didn't find anything. I also used Ccleaner.
I'm hoping it's all ok now and I should be well protected.
Thanks again for all your help :A

Quick question - Do I still need Hijack This?
