[QUOTE="SejongC, post: 607268, member: 60054"] Since 2 days ago, I've been infected with some sort of adware that managed to both change by default start-up page in chrome as well as random websites popping up. Several words in many websites would be highlighted green with underlines and clicking on those would pull up both a separate tab and a separate page, both of which are ad websites. After running the virus scanners above, it changed back to my normal start-up screen on chrome and every time after I would run the scanner, chrome would act fine, but after restarting it, it would come back (only the random websites/links) I am getting really confused and irritated on how my scanners say there is nothing there, but then after restarting my computer, it would just come back.
