    I have inline ads everywhere, on forums, websites etc. Please see attached screenshot

    I am sorry I have been trying to fix this and ran hitman previously :( before reading the steps for help and advice. I just can't find a solution so any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    Your logs are clean. Does this only occur when you use Google Chrome to browse the web? Do the same problems occur with Internet Explorer?

    Thanks very much for your help. I can't beleive I have got myself in to bother so fast! I just inherited this computer from my son as mine was chugging along on its last legs!

    After taking a while to find IE, (as my son had told me it wasn't installed on the computer and I had believed him at first!) I have checked it and it's fine, so it is a Chrome specific issue. It started around the time I installed utorrent. Which I have since uninstalled again.

    Please see attachments as requested, thanks again :-o

    Good news, I uninstalled the following extensions in Chrome and the problem has gone. I think there was another couple I uninstalled too, GPU something? and another Ad one. So I don't know what caused it but it seems to have gone! Thanks!

    Oh good :)
    Check above as I was planning on removing the "Click 2 Save" addon :p
    You don't have to complete the above set of instructions if everything is OK now ;)
