FireFox - Pop up IE Adware?

[Nile]

Hello DyanmicDrivers.
Just yesterday or today - everytime I open FireFox, at some point a popup in IE pops up.. It popups with a website inside it(everytime this happens again, I'll post the site - as they're all different). I tried uninstalling IE Tab Viewer, but it didn't stop the popups in IE. I think I may of downloaded Adware.

To see a list of recently installed programs, go here: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/s...08&postcount=7

Programs that I've installed in the last week:

Uninstalled Filezilla
Installed SmartFTP
Reinstalled NotePad++
Installed update to PDN(Paint. net)
Installed MSN+
Installed Stylizer - then uninstalled
Installed EditorPlus - then uninstalled
Installed GTalk
Installed Gmail Notifier...

Can someone please help.

Edit:
Some other things I forgot to say I installed:
First 10 topics(installed most plugins), if it hasn't changed since 1/2/09:

Have you tried system restore?

Hope this helps!

Before that, you might want to try running some cleaner programs like Windows Defender, AVG Anti-Spyware, or Spybot Search & Destroy.

Ok - I've tried spybot search and destroy. Heres a link that just popped up:
http://www.diet.com/index.php

Edit: Ok.. Now I don't know whats going on. It may be FF adware that I may of downloaded.. Or the IE default homepage which is: http://www.google.com/ig/dell?hl=en&client=dell-usuk&channel=us&ibd=608041, can someone go there and see if pop ups happen(refresh a couple, clear cache and such).

Edit: Ok... I figured out in both IE and Firefox, it opens IE windows with ads..

Ahh, thanks bluewalrus.. It's working for the meanwhiles. I'll respond back if it happens again.

Ok, I'm sick of this. It happens whenever FireFox is open or Internet Explorer - I run Ad-Ware and SpyBot every day... I can't have this happen, does anyone else have any ideas?

(all spybot and ad-ware do is pick up a little click media cookies and such. )

Have you tried to start Firefox in safe mode (all add-ons will be disabled) and see whether you get the same issue?

It seems that IE Tab add-on has some issues, I've read sometimes back not sure whether it is about some ad-aware). Mozilla people recommending IE View add-on over IE Tab.
