Hi fourteen85 - I thought we'd sorted this out? -

It depends upon whether the videos were put there by whoever designed the page or whether they're being generated by malware.

The latter is actually more likely, so download, install and run the free version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware:

(NB: At the end of the installation process, you'll encounter a pre-ticked option to take a free trial of the Premium version. Ensure that you deselect it before proceeding).

Otherwise try an ad-blocker (ensuring, of course, that you configure it to allow ads from AB -we don't want to upset the Ed, do we?):
https://adblockplus.org/

Surprised Chico hasn't told you what to do with IE!

[Buenchico]

They don't allow that sort of language on AB, Jackdaw33 ;-)

sorry for not replying sooner, Yes Lie in I thought it was sorted as well but I must have changed something, I have installed adblock plus as suggested by Chris and that has done the trick Thank you both very much for your time. ( I already had Malwarebytes installed)
