How do I get rid of all those annoying popups ads on my screen...?

While I am checking my emails and trying to log on to other important websites. This has really pissed me off during the last few days as I have had my laptop cleaned and I download one software programme when another one comes on the screen.

This has slowed down my PC. So I have downloaded another one and the same thing occurs.When when I try to exit or click on either no or yes the ad still comes up again and again. Pain in the ass. Sometimes I get suspicious of the ads as seems as thought they deliberately try to grab your attention and/or slow down your PC.

Is there are software app that can get rid of these cybernetic vultures?

This has taken me over 20 minutes just to type this up.

    If you use a browser like Chrome or Firefox, you can get a plugin called AdBlock Plus. It blocks most, if not all ads. And if you're trying to support a specific website, you can disable it on a single site.

    After that, run a scan on your computer and get rid of any bad stuff.

    These men and women who just put down a bunch of letters that mean nothing. It can be just a bunch of garbage I just noticed one like that. These persons don't deserve the honor of an answer to their "query," due to the fact it's no question. This is a first-rate position and an informative situation. I see it as a situation the place we are able to support every other. They need to store that for the chat room, if they rather wish to put down random letters from the alphabet like that. Grams
