Yes, I know all the drama surrounding yts.am torrenting movie site. Last year it was great - but this year it is quickly turning to mud - of the ANNOYING malware/adware kind. You can live with it but the size of the Pop-up adds are not small and can block out 20% of the right-hand bottom side of the screen just with 2 large popup ads with up to 1to 4 ads at a time and up to 12 to 20 ads at a time. All I can do is repetitively x the ads out. Ive had since Jan/Feb. What has changed however more recently this year on yts.am in the last 2-3months is that: 1. they have begun advertising a row of about 4 bimbo pics after you click on a movie choice 2.they did offer occasional Netflix torrents and lossless CD ripped torrents which seem to have been a temp test trial - which is kind of desperate and just asking for trouble 3. but the weirdest one of all is I think they have teamed up with a product called Avira Antivirus. As all the popup ads are labeled yts.am. However there are a lot of haters of this torrent website which is also called yts.ag and it would seem logical that they have teamed up with an antivirus product that installs a malware pop-up virus on to my computer. So, this is my only reason for joining this forum. I'm a 50yo newbie. I'm not a computer geek at all. My PC uses Windows 7 pro (with the last 2016 service 1 pack update bundle installed etc.) The main SUSPECT is the "Avira Antivirus" while yts.am is an online website & not an application. I most likely installed the Avira Antivirus software and got tempted hoping it would be either Free or cheaper than other antivirus online - I thought yts.am had been good to me last year so I trusted the Avira Antivirus, not thinking I would get a virus from them - but I was probably wrong as things got worse. As soon as the popup ads in Spanish started appearing this year Jan/Feb 2018 all of the ads were tagged with yts.am so within days I used the free version of Revo Uninstaller advanced scan and deleted the Avira application - but the ads still appear for the last 3+ months as per photo & much as 12 to 20 ads at a time. I was even desperate enough to try and delete the remaining Program data file folder named "Avira" and only ended up removing the first step that starts my computer. Now I have to press F1 every time I start my PC. The free Revo Uninstaller is usually good at removing the most stubborn software with malware - but this is the first software "Revo Uninstaller" couldn't completely remove an application for me. Windows security/updates & Free: AVG antivirus/ Revo Uninstaller/ and "Spybot Search and destroy" software have usually been enough to keep my computer safe but NOT THIS time. It doesn't seem to be heard of yet so maybe I am one of very few. I suspect the Pirating Police(THE HEAT) are on to these scoundrels And users will avoid them LIKE THE PLAGUE. Half of the (Program Data)Avira folder can be deleted but seem to reappear. So I have to live with it until I can afford to get rid of it. And it sux because it seems to have attached itself to my startup operating system. And if you can see the attached photo it cannot be removed by any browser Adblocker as it pops-up regardless of what I'm doing on the computer. It may be a virus not many people have seen or the name Avira Antivirus & yts.am or yts.ag may not even be linked with one another, as yts.ag have a lot of haters, that would probably give yts.ag users a virus for free. I'm just one of the few who is willing to admit it. Your advice would be much appreciated.

So, this is my only reason for joining this forum. I'm a 50yo newbie. I need any advice on getting rid of this annoying malware/adware popup on the bottom right-hand-side of my screen. They pop up in lots of 1-4 ads at a time - you can "x" or close them but they come in 1-4 lots x 1-5 times. Could I have agreed to a cookie that can do this?? I use Google Chrome browser and already have 2 effective working Popup blockers that block ads appearing from the Top - but they do not block the bottom/right yts.ag labeled ads and it doesn't matter what webpage I'm on. The other main SUSPECT is the "Avira Antivirus" while yts.ag is an online website it is not an application. I most likely installed the Avira Antivirus software when I saw the free trial hoping it would be either Free or cheaper than other antivirus online - I thought yts.ag had been good to me last year so I trusted the Avira Antivirus, not thinking I would get a virus from them - but I was probably wrong as things got worse. As soon as the ad popups in Spanish started appearing all of them were tagged with yts.ag so within days I used Revo Uninstaller advanced scan and deleted the Avira application - but the ads still appear for the last 2 months. I was even desperate enough to try and delete the remaining Program data file folder named "Avira" and only ended up removing the thing that first step that starts my computer. Now I have to press F1 every time I start my PC. AVIRA ANTIVIRUS OR YTS.AG REALLY SUCK. And I suspect copyright Police(THE HEAT) are on to these scoundrels. The Avira folder in the Program Data cannot be deleted - even though the free Revo Uninstaller deleted the application from my computer. So it seems as though the virus program is in the this Avira folder in Program Data. And if you can see the attached photo it cannot be removed by any browser Adblocker. It may be a virus not many people have seen or the name Avira Antivirus & yts.ag may not even be linked with one another, as yts.ag have a lot of haters, that would probably give yts.ag users a virus for free.
