Unhappy

I've tried most of the anti spyware and anti virus software over the last week as my windows live one care subscription is up for renewal....in fairness to microsoft it has worked well...

So far tested this week are:

AVG - Found it not great, failed to pick up anything much

PC Tools - Great picked up everthing, just failed to fix any of it

McAfee - no thanks, i've enough of viruses without installing another one

Norton / Symantec - see mcafee above

Eset - easy download, simple install, very light, completley useless

Computer Associates

Computer Associates is winning by a long mile at the moment, it has impressed me as it did not effect pc performance in any way, it handels spam in outlook without flaw, warns me of any real time threats, all round it's the best i've come across

Now the upsetting bit

None of the above have fixed my problem, what's happening is...let's say i'm on Irish SEO, Marketing & Webmaster Discussion suddenly my browser just jumps straight to party poker website etc, it's as if someone has completley hijacked my browser (it's happening with all browsers, ie, firefox & opera) I'm also getting full page pop ups

Has anyone any ideas what this could be...???

please help, it's driving me crazy.......
