Computer Virus, or something open new IE window?

On my wife's comp I have a virus or something that mimics and opens a whole new IE window and brings up similar sites to what she has search for. Sometimes it even opens up Media player. I have tried everything, Norton crashed the comp. and Adware 2007 says its a trojan but cannot fix it. Norton said it was a trojan also tried to fix it and crashed. Any Ideas?????

Check out Hiren's Boot Disk. The best way to remove a virus is to get rid of it before Windows starts
dump norton and try NOD32. you could download a program called hijackthis (free) and look for possible browser hijacks. if norton told you where the trojan is, write it down, restart into safe mode and then delete the affected file. oh turn off system restore before you restart into safe mode
You may be having a virus or spyware installed on your PC. Norton, AVG , Avast are free antivirus software. Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at http://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html
thats a spyware problem. get windows defender... its a microsoft product which is free
