A Question Before I Possibly Waste an Experts Time

I'm a little overlly paranoid at times and before I waste anyone's time on this site I wanted to be sure that I need to have my computer reviewed by one of the experts here. I was searching recently trying to find out how to do something computer related and tried to stay on sites known to be trustworthy but got a pop up from NIS that said it blocked a trojan. I don't know which site housed the trojan as next time I went to the same site that I was on when the pop up appeared, the popup did not appear again. Anyway I did a scan with Malwarebytes and NIS to be sure nothing got through and neither found anything. Then yesterday I ran ESET online scanner and it found W32/google.toolbar.E (it said it was in ccleaner). So now my malware radar paranoia is running rampant. It does seem like my hard drive is active more than it used to be at idle times. Is it OK if I go ahead and follow the instructions for cleanup and have someone look at my computer or is it a waste of your time? Thanks so much.
