Sounds suspicious. You may want to run some supplemental scans. These two tools are highly regarded:

Malwarebytes Anti-malware : http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.superantispyware.com/

Have you tried making IE your default browser again? It's under Tool > Internet Options > Programs (or Windows Control Panel > Internet Options > Programs)
