Pop-Ups, Curses
So i was working with my office computer last Saturday. After my computer rebooted successfully, a pop-up advertisement appeared from nowhere, and an internet explorer webpage opened with perfspot.com in the address bar,another window pops up with SAATCHI advertising......grrrrrrrrrrrrr ,quite annoying actually, so as my usual routine, i boot to safe-mode and started my malware bytes anti-malware. Oh my, no treats detected, and the pop-ups are still there when i go back to normal mode. I downloaded Spyware Doctor and booted to safe mode, yey! it detected some nasty spyware, i clicked on delete or was that clean.....hmmmm anyways,
Great, I feel great, seeing that the software actually detected something, oh the malware bytes did not detect it because its not a malware.lolz.
WOOOOPS
As i booted up back to normal mode, the problem came back after a few minutes. Thats it, im pissed, curse the creator of this annoying pop-up ads
SOLUTION
Ive observed that the pop-up ads are all Internet Explorer, so i simply un-install the internet explorer program under control panel, since i have mozilla, i dont need to worry about internet browser, and i used some cleaning tools like CCleaner and restart my computer and i deleted the internet explorer folder under program files just to make sure i dont have any nasty left.
Well, i still need to use internet explorer because i need to access some websites that would not run well under mozilla firefox so i go ahead and install it again,hoping i wont see those common pop-ups again.
YUP! SUCCESS!!! no more pop ups.lolz...
