Internet Explorer problem?

Hello, I have an incredibly annoying problem.

Internet explorer keeps opening fifty million times when I use firefox.

I have changed my default browser to firefox and have changed the proxy server address to 0.0.0.0 to prevent any sites being reached. It previously tried to take me to some strange website called "the truth is out there". As I changed the proxy server address, it now opens a blank IE page.

I have downloaded 50 trillion adware removers and my anti virus (comodo) system has done a trillion full scans, but has revealed nothing.

My system restore also does not remove it.

I do not want to have to use my rescue disks, so is there any sort of way to fix this highly annoying problem?

I play many MMORPGS and they all keep getting minimized when IE opens randomly.

Thanks for the help.

Sounds like your problem is malware related, especially since you hint at browser redirection. Follow the steps below to ensure your system is clean.

Firstly update and run your anti-virus product. You can also run a free online scan as well as some malware can actually corrupt or disable your resident security products. Here are a few online scans you can run:
