I've had problems on and off for 6 months now with popups that seem to be coming from something called ADVERTISEMENTS powered by Provider. Another bothersome thing are highlighted kind of hyperlinks with a green symbol next to them. Turns up both in Chrome and Firefox. Computer runs on Windows 10. They have been bouncing back after repeated removals at least for half a year. I've tried most free adware removal tools recommended on various trusted sites and it still comes back, at least after a while. There's nothing suspicious-looking in either browser's list of add-ons or anything, and nothing in Program files files in the computer, so the manual removal guides I google are of little help since nothing is visible in the program files/ add-on lists and consequently cannot be removed. The automatic removal tools I've tried don't seem to have any lasting effect.
