Virus or MSE?

Kayalana99

Hiya guys,

I keep getting pop up's this morning, one was random, one was MSE asking me to fill in a questionnaire, and the third was a loan advert when I was browsing the loan section of the forum.

Anyone else getting this? (when I say pop up's it opens a new tab and always seems to happen when the page is just about to refresh)

I've never had anything like that, I suspect you need to do a clean up of your system.

I'll do a check on it then - just thought it was strange the MSE questionnaire was one of them as well but it was probably just conscience. I've had another loan one since posting this so it's not happening freq.

My first port of call would be a quick scan using Malwarebytes.

Run browser in safe mode (or without addons); and/or reset browser settings.

Thanks guys I've sorted it now, was something called Megabrowse on my computer. I downloaded Coral draw and they tried to put loads of crap on my computer so I unticked all the boxes and read everything carefully to make sure I got *just* that...but I am guessing they put that on anyway.

Shame on these companies really you'd think someone such as Coral would be better then to sinking to these low tactics to make money.

You mean Corel Draw? (Coral is a bookmakers).

That's the one sorry it's the only thing I've downloaded in past week and they were really pushing to install other things on my computer so don't see where else I could of got it.

Where did you download CorelDraw from? Do you have a link so I can investigate for myself?
