If it's trying to spread malicious software, unplug it from the internet until you have it fixed.

Hi, there maybe something virus with your IE.
i recommand you to try firefox. which is more safe than IE.
it can block that annoying ads and disable any virus on webpage. as you know, most virus are spread through internet.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.
Download firefox for free in here:

Download AVG free edition from download.com. That should clean it if it is a virus.
But probably a "spyware", so download and run Ad-aware, then Spybot Seek and Destory (Both free from download.com) Between them they should clean the spyware
