Ad nuisance - Glynis Grant - 18-10-2014
:bash: Every time I go to CS website I get pestered by sites telling me to fill in surveys. Is everyone getting this or have I got a virus.
I've just checked this post and some of the words are blue and underlined. If you hover over them you get more adverts -- please don't. what's going on? How do I fix it??
Please advise!!

Hi Glynis,
I had this problem on a PC some years ago - can't remember what I did to remove it, but this might be useful

Otherwise, wait for one of our techy-types to respond
Cheers,

You have some nasties on you computer. Download Malwarebytes (Free version) - and run it.

Thank you to you both. I have downloaded Alistair's malware programme and it seems to have worked. Andy's website was very informative.
