Random Websites Popping Up

[NCUndertaker]

I have malwarebytes but am continuing to get random websites popping up on new tabs.

The last one was "healthierpatriot.com"

Hi  

Which web browser is this ?

and

Is the popup tab a full screen one?   or is it just a small one that shows on the lower right bottom of the screen?

Hi,

I understand you use Firefox browser.  And that now you have it in a better state.

Malwarebytes has a free browser extension for Chrome & another for Firefox that will provide lots of benefits.
Read about it & install the extension for Firefox as appropriate, on Windows pc's.
For Firefox see

Also, take these tips to heart.
The Malwarebytes Blog has an article about "push ads" that take advantage of some mechanisms in modern-day web browsers.
This is the link address

If you have Windows 10, you want to make sure to do the section in there about EDGE browser.
Then too,do the section for Firefox, do each appropos section for each web browser, regardless of what operating system runs your computer.

 

Let me know if you need anything else.

Cheers,
