Yesterday I looked at the microsoft's antivirus program.

And just WHAT was "it" that you actually downloaded and installed? And
from WHERE did you download it?

I decided not to buy it.
Now I can't access my IE websites.
When I try to access even a frequently used website,

And WHAT is that frequently used web site?

this page appears saying "Internet Explorer Warning: Visiting this website may harm your computer.
When I click on Properties of the page, this shows: http://microsoft.securedwebbrowser.com/auload2.php?aid=880865

Was securedwebbrowser.com the frequently used web site? If so, that
site is *not* a Microsoft site. It is some Russian site operated by
Andrey V Vernikov.

How can I stop this from running on my computer?
Thanks!

What did you install or where did you visit after uninstalling the
vaguely described "microsoft antivirus program"? Looks like you've been
hijacked.

Tried resetting IE back to factory defaults (advanced options)?
Tried rebooting into Windows' safe mode and retest?
