Hi. I used Mozilla Firefox. For some reason, I am getting pop up ads which say "Internet Explorer" a program I don't use. ( a computer guy told me it probably wasn't IE). I am also getting audio ads randomly interrupting my online sessions. Ads for Beef, Wheat Thins, Choice Hotels, etc.. Worse, I am getting "Secret Crush" ads. I've run McAfee, Norton, Malaware and Trend-Micro. Even in safe mode they find no problems. Even now I am being interrupted from posting this message because my cursor keeps skipping away from the board. I can't find anyone who has had this problem. Any help?

Google AVG Free and download it. It's a lot better than McAfee and, Norton. Let it do a scan and see what it finds. Also, go check out cnet and get IObit Security 360 and/or Advanced SystemCare. I use Mozilla Firefox on my 8 year old gateway laptop, with these three that I have listed, and have no problems at all. I hope this helps you out.

I downloaded PC Tools, ran a full scan, no threats detected. And then I got another pop up ad.

I have the version of AVG on my laptop that you pay for. So far, so good. You need a guru.
