    Can someone help me fix this issue?

    Ever since yesterday I have been getting all this spam and ads on the computer at this site. Certain words that were never underlined before are underlined and they create pop ups. Its coming up a ton and getting annoying. I cleared my cookies still no fix. Any help would be great

    yes internet explorer. this site its the only one I am on I don't know how it got here even at one point its says "MLB" in my status box and when I went to change it a bunch of ads popped up. I probably didn't get it here but it is doing something. I don't know that much about computers so im not sure what to do

    Yea Chrome is everything they hyped it up to be. Very easy to navigate 20+ tabs. Videos stream smoother, pages load faster.

    Firefox your identity is a little more hidden vs Google Chrome

    Chrome everything is tracked not that it's a big deal but it is tracked

    adwcleaner

    Download the attached file and run it. You can verify it on www.bleepingcomputer.com.

    It will clean up your internet explorer. I would also download and run combofix afterwards, same site.
