Russian pop ups with counter on web browser

[Nachmanowicz]

They open every time I open certain pages. They are blank, apparently because of AdBlock. I installed Firefox (I use Chrome) to see if they show up there too and they showed up with actual images in the blank boxes, there's no adblock there since it was a fresh install. They don't load at the same time the page is loaded, they load a few seconds after. Here's a picture. I'm using BitDefender.

 

 

Here's the picture of it happening in Toms Hardware page, as an example.

 

Now I installed malware bytes, currently running the gree trial of pro version. I had a hyperscan done and it didnt alleviate the problem.

 

Plz how do I get rid of it? How come it passed through bitdefender?

Thanks in advance.

Oh yeah and something that really struck me: now if I have Malwarebytes open pages don't load properly. Some open with just the text and most wont open at all, with the message:

Scan with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatibale with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them.
Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.

• Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
• Press Scan button.
• It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply.
• The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.
