A few days ago I noticed small pop-up ads & full-screen ads appearing while using Internet Explorer.  Some of the time I'm able to "x" out of the page but other times I have to close down Internet Explorer & start over.  I've seen the name "sweetpacks.com"

appear on the tab name.  I think this may be a virus.  Currently, I'm running Microsoft Security Essentials as my anti-virus software with live updates.  I checked that page & it does not show any viruses as being detected.  How can I get rid of "sweet packs"?
