There are some spyware/adware programs that do this and are incredibly difficult to remove unless you know what you are doing as you need to do manual changes to your registry.
Your checkers could have found and removed the programs that caused it, but your settings will already have been altered, and your checkers will not reset your system for you.
I recommend that you save all your valuable information and photos and then format your computer.

Without actually looking at it, I dont want to give you any steps to go through, because what works for one of those things can mess up your system if its a different one. You could always try a different browser I suppose. Perhaps installing something like safari that you didnt previously have on your system might be a decent alternative? Just dont allow it to import settings from other programs when it asks you.
