Chuck!
Not traditional suggestion and it may be dangerous, but...
Try to RUN > regedit.exe
It's Windows registry editor. Before you will do all
things below - read help to learn how to back up some
keys/hives and params of registry. Or try to find these
knowledges in MS site.
Then make search in registry with
string "sex.Free4Porno.Net". If something will founded -
clear (DON'T DELETE!) the value of params/keys u will
find. Hit F3 again to continue search. Do it again if new
params/keys will be founded again. And again until it says
search complite. Then close registry editor and make the
sign of the cross :) - reboot pc.
And, as other suggests you - install anti-spyware
software... it helps you, but think not do a miracle...
it's not panacea!!! :)
and in future... Until you will know how these all spyware
works and how to secure you internet brawsing tool (such
IE) BE A GOOD BOY :) - DON'T SURF SUSPECT SITES!

INTERNET IS DANGEROUS THINK, REMEMBER!
 
Greetings --

When visiting such the sites be careful not to download/install
their "free" viewers. ;-} To repair the current situation, uninstall
the "viewer(s)" provided and then use Ad-Aware from www.lavasoft.de
and SpyBot Search and Destroy from http://security.kolla.de/ to clean
up any residue. Both have free evaluation versions.

You should also try using MSConfig to see if something is being
started each time you reboot.

Additionally, Look in the C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Start Menu\Programs\Start Up and C:\Documents and
Settings\username\Start Menu\Programs\Start Up folders, and in the
system registry, primarily in the
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and
HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run keys.

It sound like a varient of the Trojan Horse Virus
StartPage-Q. It seems to want to infect key systems
executables, such as msinfo.exe. When the an infected app
runs these executables it make the changes to the registry
and creates two files on the HDD (%WINDIR%\Default.css
(1260bytes) and %WINDIR%\Web\oslogo.bmp (1260bytes). I
found that deleting these files and making the registry
changes below should reverse its effects, but if you do
not have an uptodate antivirus system then the problem may
return. I have not checked recently but Sophos were
working on a fix, so I imagine that most of the major anti-
virus players out there should have a fix by now. But
still try the entries below. (If you copy them into a text
file and change the .txt to .reg and then run that file it
will make the changes for you.)
