Ads Keep Appearing In The Corner Of My Computer!

[Katracho93]

For a while now, I have noticed that everytime I get on the internet these ad keep appearing. I even downloaded a program called "Adfender", but it only works on certain ads.

Sorry if I put this on the wrong section.

Thanks.

try downloading it in "safe mode with networking"

or try a different browser

or disable your security programs until the program successfully downloads

To Enter Safemode

• Go to Start> Shut off your Computer> Restart
  
• As the computer starts to boot-up, Tap the F8 KEY repeatedly,
  
• this will bring up a menu.
  
• Use the Up and Down Arrow Keys to scroll up to Safemode with networking
  
• Then press the Enter Key on your Keyboard
  
• go into your usual account
