my internet explorer will keep changin to another site called and an error message comes up saying that my pc is being accessed through 2 ports. how do i get rid of this junk and close those ports?

Download Microsofts spyware beta and run it. Then uninstall that and download spysweeper from then if you still have any of this junk you will have to boot to safe mode and edit the registry.

Download CWShredder.exe to get rid of that kind of spyware.
 
Don't install commercial anti-spyware.

CWShredder - (Download it by itself, it's free)
Ad-Aware - (There is a free version there although you may have to pay for commercial licensing)
Spybot S&D - security.kolla.de (Completely free)
Microsoft Anti-Spyware Beta - (It's free right now while it's in beta, not sure about afterward, but it works quite well)
