Story: IE flaws open back door to adware

•

Ever since my 11 year old son visited a 'warez' site we have been plagued with pop-ups. Nothing stops them. We've tried the lot - noadware - spybot S&D -ad-aware, whatever we do they just keep coming. I suspect that some hidden script has modified IE in some way, because the problem does not affect Firefox. There is no obvious toolbar or alteration to IE but I am as sure as I can be that it has been compromised. I would like to remove IE altogether and just use Firefox, or ideally, reinstall a more robust and less vulnerable IE.
