sorry I missed ladeyelain's and although I followed all the steps she did I did not download anything that I can associate this with. all I have to do is is have my curser travel over a key word and I have pop ups again this is crazy. I have excellent malware adware virus protection.
 
I think I got it , it may have gotten in on a adobe flash update. My computer did a reboot but would not execute the boot and ran an internal scan. which eventually did a restore to just before the update.However, I still have the problem. Should I restore further?
 
Hi and welcome to MalwareTips! :)

I'm Fiery and I would gladly assist you in removing the malware on your computer.

Before we start:
  • Note that the removal process is not immediate. Depending on the severity of your infection, it could take a long time.
  • Malware removal can be dangerous. I cannot guarantee the safety of your system as malware can be unpredictable. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system. Therefore, I would advise you to backup all your important files before we start.
  • Please be patient and stay with me until I give you the green lights and inform you that your PC is clean.
  • Some tools may be flagged by your antivirus as harmful. Rest assure that ALL the tools we use are safe, the detections are false positives.
  • The absence of symptoms does not mean your PC is fully disinfected.
  • If you are unclear about the instructions, please stop and ask. Following the steps in the order that I post them in is vital.
  • Lastly, if you have requested help on other sites, that will delay and hinder the removal process. Please only stick to one site.
