how to remove the internet explorer virus

when i open internet explorer, i cannot browse for any addresses i type. it
will redirect you to a certain site that contains a pornographic material.
when i try windows update it will redirect also to that site. i cant remember
that specific site but it contains pornographic material.

i try to update my antivirus and it works fine (Norton Antivirus
Professional) then scan my computer but it does not find any threats or
viruses.

i try to change my default address to http://www.goolge.com
it displays that page but when i try to search it will redirected to that
pornographic site.

i try a another web browser and it works fine. but the microsoft internet
explorer won't work fine.

i think it is infected with some kind of virus.

could anyone help me how to remove it.

Maybe try to scan with "Spybot : Search and Destroy" and "Ad-Ware". Maybe
this will help.

Obtain copy of "Spyware Doctor" and run. This solved same problem for me.
