Sometime last week my norton antivirus "live update" went down and won't work so I tried to do a few things to fix it and since it came with my computer I didn't have any codes or licenses or cds. so i went looking for another antivirus. And I also downloaded Mozilla's firefox browser.. At this time weird things began to happen to my computer.
The website..."http://www.winfixer.com/download/2006/index.php?aid=mgk2_us_en&lid=search&p=3&ax=0" you dont have to go to it..but it kept popping up on my computer i have installed AVG, McAfee, ran an online scan which found 3 or 4 viruses..listed below.

C:\System Volume Information\_restore{DDE3EB95-4B24-44D8-AD38-1F974B96C2F0}\RP189\A0071792.sys Infected: Rootkit.Win32.Agent.l
C:\System Volume Information\_restore{DDE3EB95-4B24-44D8-AD38-1F974B96C2F0}\RP189\A0071793.exe Infected: Virus.Win32.Bube.l

Scan process completed.
which i then went into and manually deleted them since no other antivirus even detected it. I went on safe mode and ran other antivirus programs and still nothing found. so after doing this and thinking it was gone I uninstalled Mozilla's Firefox and used IE again. When I would go on IE every once in a great while I would receive..

i "x" out and get this to pop up

i have also checked my added programs and found nothing new or odd. any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated.
