While using the Internet Explorer I keep getting new windows popping up with advertisements for everything from anti-aging serums to dating sites. Please help. I ran HijackThis and this is the log I got.

I think someone downloaded My Web Search or the Desktop Smiley because every now and then when I try searching for something and it cannot find it that is what it says as a search but I uninstalled all of it and it is still happening. I have run anti-virus scans and I cannot find what is causing the ads to pop up in new windows and it is starting to drive me nuts. Also, every now and then the Internet Explorer just stops responding and has to restart...all on its own. Please help!!!
Thank you in advance!
