Attacked

I was tired and in the Url adress bar or google search i must have hit 2 keys and some numbers by accident(i think). it brought me to adress ending on .biz at the same time Norton pop-up windows appeared with the message 'i am being followed by twitter, bing, etc"...and other general companies. I closed the page quickly. Also it could be i (might) clicked on the Norton pop-ups but i am not sure, also i am not sure they where legit since they pop-up at the top. But Norton these days act like virus itself with there many pop-ups so i don't know.
Also on the same day i recieved a possible phishing mail, i opened the mail but did not click any link.
In Norton History. I saw 3 lines
- Attack blocked (red dot)
- AutoBlock for signaturenames blocked IP xxxx for 30 minutes (blue dot)
- Attack blocked (red dot)
details are a webattack, unwanted browser notification.
So at first glance it looks like Norton did his job but i am a bit paranoid. Becaus i see things that didn't happen in my norton history before this happent.
- I usually got a line "firewall rules updated" but after the attack there are also "there have been made automatically firewallrule changes for the system" This never happent before.
-Also I get sometimes a message i give internetresources to random software but now ALOT.
like default browser agent, video.ui, compatible telemetry, device census, Mousecoreworker, SIH-client, Nvidea webhelper, Update asistent, etc... after each line there is also the usual "firewall rules updated"
Obviously a scanned the system and used ADWcleaner but they find nothing.
What to do?
