When using Bing as a browser I sometimes get a virus warning pop up combined with high pitch whistle I can close it using the x. I am however concerned as I am having problems with my debit card details which have been accessed on 3 occasions and which I am unable to explain to my bank how. I have run a full Mcafee scan which says I have no problems

Running Mcafee scan didn't fix this pop up virus completely. Better you will try to reset the browser and go to control panel check if any unknown software's installed.
