Default When i try to open internet explorer i have to choose a program to open it...

...with, but it doesnt work? so one day this program that we didnt even own on our computer said we had a virus. we shut down the computer and later when we turned it back on it still kept popping up and freezing up our cp. the program kept saying that if we wanted the virus gone we had to buy the programs virus scan. so then my mom used a macafee scan and the macafee scan said we had no virus. but, in order to stop the other program from popping up saying we had a virus we had to delete firefox. and some how iexplorer.exe got put on our programs. so when i try to open up internet explorer this thing pops up that lists different programs saying we have to choose a program to open up the internet (and one of the programs on the list is internet explorer) so when i click internet explorer as the program to open up the internet then another thing pops up that says run, save, or cancel, so i hit run and then the list of programs pops up again! and this process is repeated no matter how many times i try!!!! i heard that this happens when you get a virus? so maybe macafee was wrong? but what i really want is to know how to just get on the internet with out the list of programs popping up!?!? thanks(:
