And run an anti malware programme like Malwarebytes too.

Anyone know of a good free safe maleware program I can run. I thought Malewarebyts was a good one, but it seems not.

Lucky, you need to post on the Techie Board. They are Gods!! I have seen them recommend malwarebytes loads of times, so you might be more infected than you first thought. You and the PC may need a shot of pencillin

Have you had time to run Malwarebytes in the last 15 minutes? It takes longer than that when I scan.
