Virus

I'm afraid that when I downloaded some files off of the internet I also downloaded some type of computer virus. I ran ad-aware and spybot and picked up minor things, but this morning when I got on my computer my browser had a pop-up add for porn on it. It took me a minute before I could get it off and reboot firefox. I was wondering if anybody could help me figure out if I have a virus and help me remove it if I do. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
