I'm running the Eset scanner as I'm writing this. Thanks again for the help Buttsie, much appreciated. Yes, I'm always very wary of nearly all pop-up boxes and usually shut the browser down at that point using Task Manager.
Last night, I cleared out most of my temporary files with CCleaner and ran an AV scan. This didn't seem to make any difference or show anything. However, about five minutes ago, I was able to open a 1fichier page with no problems.
If nothing turns up from the Eset scan, I'll just have to hope that the problem's over. This won't be first time that something irritating has cropped up, which has simply gone away. Finger's crossed.
