| 1459849 | 2019-04-10 06:25:00 | Quite often I have annoying popups appearing bottom right advertising erectile dysfunction and other advertisements. I have an ad blocker but that does not block these. Does anyone know of a programme to stop these? Your help will be appreciated.:annoyed: | Roscoe (6288) | ||

| 1459852 | 2019-04-10 20:57:00 | I'm not certain. They seem to pop up at anytime. | Roscoe (6288) | ||
| 1459853 | 2019-04-10 21:46:00 | too little info.... reset your browsers, all of them . Make sure the Browser search is Google ran an AV / malware scan across the PC (malwarebytes) look in the AV logs & quarantine check the DNS , on your router & PC In control panel, add remove programs, look for recently installed programs Given the nature of the popups , your PC is/was infected in some minor way Do the popups appear only when a web browser is running ? |

| 1459854 | 2019-04-10 23:14:00 | Do the popups appear only when a web browser is running ? I waited for a popup and when one popped up I closed the web browser (Chrome) and it was still there. Does that help? |

| 1459855 | 2019-04-11 00:41:00 | Chrome could still be running as the popup. open task manager & see if chrome is still running commonly a browser popup with that sort of popup content. Chrome has a reset option that may get rid of them . In chrome settings, advanced, Restore settings to their original defaults Or download & install firefox & use that as a test (with chrome 100% closed) & see if you get any popups |

Re read post #2, You actually gave the location in your original post appearing bottom right advertising erectile dysfunction and other advertisements This is coming from the notifications box. You will have gone to some site that has the same subject as the pop-up. Simply run Ccleaner or disk cleanup, then follow instructions in #2. Seen this happen quite a few times, with all sorts of sites throwing in advertising, from shopping channels to Porn and everything in between. |

| 1459858 | 2019-04-11 00:50:00 | help.getadblock.com This sounds more like the issue . Simply turn them off (said it a couple of times now) , even the linked article says its coming from the Notificatios :groan:. Now the site's ads are popping up in the Windows notification area. BTW - adblock often doesn't work, its NOT coming from the browsers. |
