I have AdBlock on, but recently when I click on different pages in this site, a Trust Rating advert pops up from the bottom of the screen, a Hot Deals thingy selling Spyro/Skylanders keeps coming up from the right and also from the bottom comes an eBay advert. Anyone else get these?

Sounds like spyware to me, try performing a virus scan and see if it comes up with anything.

If that doesn't work, run a general cleanup to get rid of any cookies and clean out your history.

Hmmph, make sure Adblock is fully enabled (even in Private Browsing).

If it's already enabled fully, you might want to reinstall it.

check your extensions and see if any ****ty programs installed themselves to your browser, and if there are any, remove them

and also search for related files to those extensions and remove them as well, as they will probably keep bringing them back.



i think my whole laptop is full of viruses. snap.do has returned D:

seems like you just have a ton of adware
what browser are you using ?
also try using malwarebytes to scan for stuff, spybot is pretty great too
edit: theres also the fact that darkspyro is just full of ads in the first place so it could be nothing

I had that once, tons of ads. I managed to get rid of it by resetting the Internet completely, browsing through my files and deleting the one named: Mysearchdial. Thankfully, my computer was fine, but if it continues, you may have to switch your browser temporarily.
