    Hi everyone,
    I found your forum through google while doing a search for a problem. I will tell you briefly what I was looking for just to see if I can get some help. I've been having problems with pop ups and I was told it could be from 2 things. One is adzgalore and the other is enhanced browser tools cpmsky. I have ccleaner and ran that I also "think" if I did it right deleted the browser optimizer adzgalore through ccleaner. The problem is when I tried to do the same thing for the other it said my computer might not run the same. I didn't do it as this is only a 2-3 month old computer and I'm not familar with it that much and I'm not very smart with computers, I mean I can do alot but I noticed that you were advising people to use the hajack program. That looks way to complicated for me is there anything easier that I could use.
    Thanks in advance for any help and sorry if this is to long.

    :wave and welcome to MG's.

    popups can be caused by a malware infection.
    have a look at the link paxton provided above and follow the instructions.
    I know it looks a bit complicated but if you take your time you will be fine:)

    Then start a new thread in the malware forum and attach the logs in your post. the malware guys will help you with any questions you have.

    Good Luck..

    I'm writing a post here for one reason:
    To point out how cordial and understanding the replies were to TAZ_BABY_34's request for help.

    It's rare to see people jump up and try to help even before asked as several of you did for TAZ_BABY_34. And you all replied in such a professional manor that anyone would be comfortable to work with you in this forum.

    Indeed, I "joined" this forum after seeing this thread...

    Let everyone take note of my compliment to these men. I have no hesitation to say: They have EARNED my compliment.
