As a note. There's an upgrade available for my router but I'm unable to install the upgrade.

I love you, you beautiful bi-cranial Accipitridae. Seems ok. I juts reinstalled Firefox. The issue started on chrome so, although I prefer it, I probably wont reinstall it. Unless you think the problem is eliminated and I can proceed as usual. And thank you, really.

Yes. Ads by notification. Double right clicking mouse button. And new tabs opening with 1888 numbers for PC fixes... Uninstalled and reinstalled firefox. Ads gone. But I'm sure if it came back once it will again.

Ok... so new things are happening as well as the ads by notification being changed to ads by dynamic pricing. My browser is crashing and giving me a "runtime error call" or something. I'll note it down when it happens again. And flash plugin is crashing and videos will stop playing. When I uninstall the browser it will fix the issue temporarily, and that time seems to be shortening.
