Why do I get all these stupid ads only on this computer?
Why do I get all these stupid ads only on this computer?
I never get these ads on my laptop (which is getting fixed right now) or on the school's computers, and this desktop didn't used to have them. I removed all the extra toolbars and things that I thought might cause it and went to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions and disabled/uninstalled everything I could. THEY ARE STILL THERE.
They show up as this little magnifying glass looking thing over every image on a page, such as on Tumblr, and when you wave over the image (such as, to click on a youtube vid) it takes you to the advertiser's site. As well, there are adds running alongside youtube videos that i am watching (not the ones in the video that precede the video) that MAKE SOUND WHILE I AM LISTENING TO MY VIDEO.
(I've also gone to CONTROL PANEL and uninstalled all the extra toolbars).
Please. help. How do I get rid of these stupid things????????? It's really hard to do anything on this computer.
