then
(1) If you have not already scanned your comp with spybot do that now .Update it and then run it so it gets rid of all the spyware and trojans in safe mode
(2) Do an online virus scan to check if you still have any other viruses in your computer. And let us know if the online virus scan still finds any virus or spyware .
(3) Get you self a good antivirus or a free one if your present anti virus is not protecting you .

I dont agree with you that you have a virus based on what youve said. You have tracking cookies that are attached to websites you visit either thru their approval or otherwise.
Get yourself SpybotSearchDestroy which is free from Geeks website and install that and search and destroy them with that then innoculate the computer for adware from tracking cookies. The pop ups will then be gone.
You can also get free anti virus version www.grisoft.com and its 100% free and updated daily.
