Celldorado popups

As of this week our pc keeps showing Celldorado popups & other unwanted items
once we start up Internet Explorer.
Our McAfee virus scanner reports no viruses or worms whatsoever. There have
been no reports of security violations etc.

Has anybody who encountered this problem been able to solve it?
What is the best way to ged rid of those popups? Which exe's or dll's are
likely to be corrupted and what should we do about it?

Thanks in advance!

Install and update Spybot Search & Destroy, and Malwarebytes, then scan your
computer in Safe Mode.
All info below.

So what are you using to scan for spyware, adware and such? Many antivirus
scanners do a poor job of finding these kinds of threats.
