Virus or script with Internet Explorer?

Hi! Quite often when I´m using Internet Explorer 6.0 the mouse-pointer starts moving by it self. If I press ctrl-alt-del it starts drawing stuff on the screen. The only thing I can do is to turn the computer off. I´m using the latest Norton Antivirus program but it doesn´t detect this as a virus.
This mainly happens if I have been visiting some "suspicios"-sites (eg. mp3-sites) but it has also occured just after startup of IE with some "regular" sites.
Is this a virus on my harddrive or is it just some kind of temporary script that takes hold of my computer? Is there a cure?
