It sounds more like spyware than a virus or a rootkit. Besides what people have already suggested, you might want to try Spybot S&D (there's a free version which works great).
As far as antivirus goes, McAffee was great when I was using DOS. Now I'd recommend Avast! as the free version is very complete, and in my experience works better than the now-bloatware AVG.
