    Click the link


    So you switch the computer on, what make is it? Do the adverts appear after you do any action, or do they load themselves? What adverts in particular are you seeing?

    It might be easier if you recorded a video of you turning on your PC and all these adverts popping up, then you can upload the video so someone can see exactly what's going on.

    I think your description of your problem is incorrect, or you husband has been surfing 100s of dodgy sites while you were cooking the turkey.

    You'll need to open the link on your computer, as that's where we'll be asking you to install MalwareBytes (and maybe CCLeaner and a few others afterwards).

    I know that but when I typed in the link on the pc it said webpage no accessible. I've got cc cleaner downloaded. have you got the address for Firefox please. I don't know what to do first.
