About a week ago I just looked into my "Delete Program" screen just to see what was up (Nothing was wrong, I was just a bit bored that day) and noticed some stuff that I didn't need. After uninstalling those, that's when the problems arose. Though I took down the virus that changed my homepage, tabs open once in a while saying stuff like Java Update Recommended or Download This etc. etc. Please help me remove it. Thanks! (By the way, I run Firefox.)

Try resetting your Firefox browser.

Click the menu button and then click help .
From the Help menu choose Troubleshooting Information. ...
Click the Refresh Firefox… button in the upper-right corner of the Troubleshooting Information page.
To continue, click Reset Firefox in the confirmation window that opens.

Alright, done, but I'll have to wait a bit to really see if it did in fact work since it's only once in a while. Thanks though!

Nope, still the same problem
