Here is the report from the malwarebytes thing you asked me to install.

 

[TwinHeadedEagle]

How is the situation now?

 

[FenixVictoria]

It is still the same. It seems like it's fixed for about a mere 5 minutes. Then all of a sudden when you press anything. It just opens another tab again with adware. It can't go away no matter what I tried.

 

[FenixVictoria]

I've tried using everything malwarebytes and a whole other bunch of adware fighter before coming here with not a single chance of redemption.
