Which page ? Is it on every website or just one/a few ?
have you run a anti-malware scan recently ?

try scanning your system for malwares.

Have you noticed this happening a lot on Facebook or other such sites with 'forms' or 'boxes' to fill?

Sometimes if you've accidentally hit a key and put a space, or a character into a form on a page, particularly on sites like Facebook, the site will ask whether you want to leave without finishing your message.

What is Windows 10 Explorer? Are you using Internet Explorer on Windows 10 or the defaulr Edge browser on Windows 10? Or are you using Internet Explorer 10 on a different Windows version?

There are some sites that have it built into the site when you click the exit button .

Yep that is what is happening when I click exit button ...Never used to happen ...Can it be disabled it is so annoying.

click on the gear wheel icon at the top right and select Internet options.

select the Security tab and click the Custom level button

scroll down to Scripting, then under Active Scripting, click disable

click OK.

Yeah right. Then prepare for other annoyances because stuff that used to work just fine doesn't any more.

I did try that but I noticed when home page loads a lot of pics and stuff are no longer there.. So this is not an ideal solution
