This isn't required by the site. I suggest you run a thorough spyware and antivirus check again. And stop using IE for anything as far as possible.
I would like to point your attention to "such as". This is a wild guess but I remember my MSIE to rely on external plug-ins to display png files properly. This would fit under the MSIE-question above.
There has been at least some PNG support in IE since 4.0 betas:

- although I do vaguely recall some versions of either IE or Netscape 4 using, for example, the QuickTime plugin to render PNGs.
