Default Activex and changing homepage(virus)

I need some help,A trojan horse virus got through my antivirus software and shutdown my pc.On restart I got a windows message saying it fixed a problem.The trouble is now using Internet explorer my homepage keeps changing to some **** search engine and now alot of pictures will not load(just get red x) and a message about active x being used.Then it shuts down the pc.
I ran both Spybot and Norton checks and nothing was found.Any ideas as to what to do next?
Thanks

Free ****??, dont complain mate lol

Would try some of the online scanners, do a google for trojan scanman and housecall, dont really on or trust Norton now its been violated, I would'nt be too convinced the trojan has been removed fully.
