Popups first started about two weeks ago in chrome. Also last week I couldn't log into forums using Opera. Have performed scans with Malwarebytes and Bitdefender. Also checked for obvious unwanted text enhance programs.
Uninstalled and reinstalled chrome and opera. Now popup text has started appearing in Opera.

Hello,


Please download Zemana AntiMalware and save it to your Desktop.
  • Install the program and once the installation is complete it will start automatically.
  • Without changing any options, press Scan to begin.
  • After the short scan is finished, if threats are detected press Next to remove them.
Note: If restart is required to finish the cleaning process, you should click Reboot. If reboot isn't required, please restart your computer manually.
  • Open Zemana AntiMalware again.
  • Click on

  • Now click File > Save As and choose your Desktop before pressing Save.
  • The only left thing is to attach saved report in your next message.
