As of a few days ago my computer started to play up. Everytime i open an internet program either explorer or firefox at randon intervals i will get internet explorer popping up wiht a different advert/website. Even if i am using firefox internet explorer pops up. Its laways a seperate window and never maximised and this has never happened before. I have run Trend Micro scans for the past 2 days and it finds things and gets rid of them. I have ran AVG anti spyware and it says everything is ok now but i am still getting the pop-ups. I don't know what else to do and i know this request is probably in the wrong place but as i said i am new to this. I usually get rid of stuff myself but i don't even know where to start with this one. Can anyone please give me any suggestions as to how i start to tqckle this annoying thing.... Thank you for patience and time and may you have a nice day Yamahayoda |
