I have malware only on Firefox and only on retail sites. Used spybot, reset Firefox and reinstalled. Nothing worked. What can I do?

Recently I must have downloaded a virus. On Firefox when I go to any commericial site I am bombarded with pop up ads. Facebook, PDFs and search engines there are no pop ups.I have downloaded and ran Spybot, reset Firefox and reinstall Firefox. I tried using IE and I don't seem to be having the same problems. I do like Firefox, especially for using my RSS feeds. Hopefully you have a solution. BTW I have an older PC running XP.
Thanks
Mike

Separate Issue.
Your System Details shows
Installed Plug-ins
Shockwave Flash 11.7 r700
Shockwave Flash 9.0 r47
Having more than one version of a program may cause issues.
Flash is notorious for not cleaning out the older version as part of an update.
Grab the uninstaller from here:
'''[http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html Uninstall Flash Player | Windows]'''
'''[http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html Uninstall Flash Player | Mac]'''
Then reinstall the latest version.
Shockwave Flash '''v15.0.0.152 http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/'''
