    Still getting pop ups

    Only whilst browsing or do you get them at other times?

    Does it happen if you use either Internet Explorer or Google Chrome?

    No problem.

    Watch what you download as it looks like the download of the YouTube Downloader was the start of your problems.

    If your happy things are running well...
    • Right click AdwCleaner.exe & choose "Run as administrator" to run it.
    • If AdwCleaner prompts you an update is available, click Cancel
    • Click Uninstall.
    • Click Yes to the prompt.
    • AdwCleaner will close and uninstall itself


    Then create a restore point and delete the old ones and you're done!
