Yahoo won't load - virus?

Hi everyone, I really hope someone can help me here. I have Windows XP Pro, with Nod32 AV. Earlier this week, Yahoo started failing to open. The front page. Now Google, Gmail and some other sites won't load. New windows keep opening up with porn/dating sites. Adware? Spyware? Virus? I've scanned and scanned and scanned... I also CANNOT turn ON Auto Updates. Just tells me, nope can't do it.
Help!
