I cannot go to any website or URL without popups asking me to take surveys. How do I block these scams?

Hi maelkemi,

That sounds to me like you might have some malware that is hijacking your browser. What virus scanner are you using? Please run a full scan.

I would also recommend running a full scan with:

  • Malwarebytes Anti Malware
  • Spybot S&D

Let me know if that comes up with anything. Have you noticed any other unusual browser behaviour? e.g. change of homepage, unfamiliar toolbar, change of default search engine etc
