long shot here but try installing Mozilla firefox, this may connect you to the net without IE being able to. (mozilla is a great browser and will stop future problems like this occuring)

then your next problem is to remove the spyware or malware that is on your computer.

You probably removed the spyware but the redirect is still in your windows host file.
The host file should be under windows/system32/drivers/etc
Open it in notepad and make sure the only thing in the list is 127.0.0.1 localhost
