They started a few days ago when I went to Tesco online shopping, and when the page came up there was a Tesco offer panel, which unfortunately I clicked on, and that's when they started.

My pop up blocker is on, but I get offers coming from the Hot Deals, Ebay, Amazon etc etc. I also get some words highlighted in red or green on AB, and when my cursor goes over them I get another offer!

I have done a Malware scan and a MSE scan. I am on FF windows 7.

Any help please!!!!!!!!

>>>I have done a Malware scan

What with? Running a (so-called) 'quick' scan with the free version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (preferably while your computer is in Safe Mode) usually fixes the problem.

Yes Buenchico, that's correct but not in safe mode. Just of interest, your answer where you wrote computer, was repeated twice, underlined in red with a small green thingy at the end, which was a pop up when cursor was over it.

Thanks for your quick reply as usual.
Check to see what programs are installed. You might have a rouge ad ware program installed. Check to see what processes are running. Search on net on how to do this as Match of the Day is about to start and I am short of time! Try a FULL scan of Malwarebytes. I do recommend the browser plugin ad block plus plugin.
