Do a malware check with some malware scan programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

Check Image File Execution Key...
The following instructions involve removing registry entries, which can severely bork your computer unless you know what you're doing. Please make sure you exercise caution and proceed at your own risk.
Regedit
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\]
If you were/are currently infected with AV8... you'll see keys underneath the Image File Execution such as chrome.exe, firefox.exe, opera.exe., iexplore.exe
Do NOT delete DIINXOptions or IEInstal.exe under this branch in the registry.
Delete the full key for any browser name you see there. If you look inside any one of those keys, it will show you that it routes to iesafemode.exe which is a piece of malware in and of itself
IE - Remove Chrome.exe, which specifically references iesafemode.exe
After performing this, you'll probably want to remove the actual piece of malware known as "iesafemode.exe"
32 bit - C:\windows\system32\iesafemode.exe
64 bit - C:\windows\syswow64\iesafemode.exe
