Run Spybot or Ad-aware, because this sounds more like spyware then a virus to me.

DOwnload the updates for adaware. DO that each time you run it.

Also go to microsoft and do the sasser test.

That vworm has so many variants now. It may cure it, worth a shot.

I doubt that any Spyware or Adware would do that.. If it can, then you must have extremely rare spyware/adware..... But other then that... Do you see a bunch of iExplorer threads AFTER u reboot windows? Because I would think that you are not closing out of IE windows when your done.. but how could That be.. I really dont know..
