Hello,

Sometime ago I started having a chrome tab open randomly with a random generated ad tab. Even when chrome isn't running it opens one tab up, so I tried searching for malware problems and noticed that if I searched "malware" or "adware" words, chrome would turn off automatically.

I've managed to install Malwarebytes and Spybot, entered Safe Mode and performed a scan, which removed the malware that was affecting the search words and having a svchost process to take like 50% of CPU usage, but the tab opening randomly continued.

Malwarebytes and Spybot won't detect anything - I've runned CCleaner to clean up the disk and registry but the problem persists.

I tried uninstalling Chrome too and when I've done it, Malwarebytes pop-up with a "Blocked site" warning. This are all the leads I have to the problem, hope you guys can help me with it:
