download and run adaware and/or spybot search and destroy, they should sort it out. you should be able to find both from a google search you could also try cwshredder (i think that isearch is a variant of coolweb, but i could be wrong)
also got to control panel>add/remove programs and scan thru the list. it should be fairly easy to see the unwanted progs so just remove them ! im not sure that adaware would find them as these are sneakily installed programs now.
I'd also recommend using an alternative browser like Opera of Firefox. Also, there's a nice little program called HiJackThis which is very useful. http://www.spychecker.com/program/hijackthis.html
