uh... There's a lot of viruses out there that won't seem to do anything or won't do anything right away. Just because you saw no immediate change doesn't mean you're safe.
I do internet service support for a living, have for some years now. Trust me, scan your computer to be sure. Preferably with an online scanner like Trend's Housecall since once already on the machine, some viruses can hide from or even damage installed AV programs.

My opinion on this: IE is your enemy. Plain and simple..
I didn't look over the site much, and my AV isn't going off as I use FireFox ONLY. So, don't know what the deal is then.

$ythe, as one of the emotes that I made say...:
You should be SMACKED for your atrocities against mankind!...or at least spanked...though I think you'd like that too much
XD  hehe j/k mate.
Seriously though, IE is not your friend. Firefox pwns all; you, your dog, your dog's mom, and your mom...and maybe a bag of chips too...
Wow...the lack of sleep is really evident in this post...heh...I should probably be off to bed now. Ta!

I dunno whether to be sarcastic and say thats a great idea, or whether to be truthful and tell you that you're, well, i'll just be sarcastic.
But anyway, that line doesn't show up in my page source... I had no problems. I dunno what the deal is.

I've noticed that, too. But seeing as it loads webpages a fracking hell of a lot faster than Internet Explorer can even dream to, I am happy to wait the 10 to 20 seconds for it to load.
And if you don't like the colours, download a skin for it that changes the colours and look of everything mate.
