Do you have a virus scanner if you dont get one at download.com
AVG Free Works good you might have downloaded a worm these can get very annoying fast.
(NOTE)Make sure you update it the hole way first then scan it might take a while so site back and in joy.

How did you uninstall? It is recommended not to uninstall via 'add/remove programs'...
