Some remote control programs allow someone to install client program silently 
and easily. 

The person wanting to install such a client must have admin priviledge. The 
install of client program and later the connection to the computer are 
performed without the awareness of the computer owner, like a background 
operation. When you are working with your computer, the curiuos guy or 
attacker, hacker will be watching you. Dameware Remote Control is an example. 
Your problem resembles this situation.

Subject: remotely took over computer

Hi all,

I have a bit of a problem. I just bought a new computer and it seems that 
any time I get on the internet, somebody is able to take over the control of 
my computer

For example: when I am typing an email using Yahoo mail, somebody took over 
my computer and I saw them typing something else??

I installed NoAdware then  scaned my computer ->no infection

Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks
