Hi George,
Sounds like you're using proxy server to access Pirate Bay database that someone has manage to save and upload, because its been taken down by the Police. These Proxy Servers are full of malware.
If you are going to continue to use Torrents or Download Pirate content, you better know what your doing, because you are going to keep getting infected.
Please try running AdwCleaner.
