Whenever i open up Internet Explorer, it goes straight to a website called "websecuritypage.com", even though my homepage it set to yahoo.com. Also, a toolbar installed itself onto my Interent Explorer called "Security Toolbar 7.1". My computer has been running slightly slower, but my virus scanner doesn't say i have any problems. Is there something it's not picking up, or do I have a serious problem on my hands?

My computer has been allowing pop ups to...well...pop up each time I go to a new page, even though I have pop up blocker on the highest blocking setting. What could be the problem? Is it a virus or is there something I can check out to see if a program downloaded on my computer is allowing this to happen? Please help me out here!
