Hi
I suddenly started getting pop ups related to whichever site I was on eg If I went on my bank it says annonymous survey 2020 for users of lloyds bank etc.
I haven't opened them just click them off, I have run virus scans which say I'm protected and they have found no threats.
It's really annoying and I hoped someone might be able to tell me how to get rid of it.
TIA

I doubt the pop-up blocker would stop them & you'd still need to remove the cause in any case.0

Post me a DDS log - should take 2-3 minutes.
Download DDS from the link below and save it to your desktop:
Link
After you've downloaded it and saved it to your desktop:- Double click DDS to run it.
- Click Start
- When it's finished, DDS will open two logs:
- DDS.txt
- Attach.txt
Copy & paste the contents of just DDS.txt for now and post it here (you may need to split the log over separate posts)0
