Sounds more like a trojan than a virus. Glad you got rid of McAfee. That and Norton suck.
Get two anti-spyware/trojan programs as one never ever catches them all.
I use Spybot and Spyware Doctor as well as two registry cleaners.
Virtumonde is perhaps one of the worst trojans-it will shut down your protection if it it not passworded then wreak havoc with IE, switching you to places, making multiple windows, you name it. I had to reformat due to that damned thing and now my Spy Doctor is passworded along with everything else so it can't shut down anything without me noticing (when I get a window asking for my PW to make changes to anything, I know it hit again)
