[ecufix]

It would appear that my browser has been hijacked when I open my home page a browser " start.qone8 " starts up and a lot of pop ups with a shithouse full of offers to win all sorts of I phones appears , also when I open DK some of the text appears in green and when I move the pointer over it another pop up jumps up , I have googled and tried some online solutions with no success , please help , thanks regards

aye same and forum posts are colour coded to see those links,i ran malwarebytes and it picked up 5 pups and after erasing them and rebooting they are still there.go into safe mode and run scan there to clean it,also use adblocker plus to stop adds.

1) When ever you get shite like this

a) Check control panel add/remove programms
b) run msconfig check start up see if it goes to a file
c) look for a start.qone.8 folder
d) type in google "remove xxxxx" - whatever it's called

2) *HATE* to say this there is a real SCARY button that marked 'log out' see what happens, just concerended about
your passsword been logged when you log back in.

ON AND OFF TOPIC:-

RUMOR states that Apple have/had/are/did making it so if you try connecting your iShit to iSpoons if you adblock it won't work, you have to watch the shitty adverts.
