Hi .. my browser keeps opening new tab with certain ads based on some words. For example, now i am playing Skyrim, there you have dragonborn .. when browsing on internet, for example for some mods and it has word dragonborn, it will open new tab with some game called dragonborn .. I noticed this on youtube too .. with different words .. however these are most of the time in russian and i dont speak that language.

I guess its some adware, but all my programs report nothing, computer clean.

its pretty annoying .. how to defend against it?

Chosen solution

Použij MBAM + AdwCleaner (nejlíp v nouzáku OS). Všechno co najdou, smaž.

Je možné že mate v počítači nejakú škodnú. Vykonajte kontrolu v tomto rozsahu:

1. Najskôr sa presvedčte o tom, či zdroj problémov nie je nainštalovaný v počítači (Ovládací panel - Programy). Ak je v zozname zapísaný nejaký podozrivý (neznámy) program, odinštalujte ho.

2. Skontrolujte nainštalované rozšírenia v internetovom prehliadači - podozrivé (neznáme) rozšírenia odstráňte.

3. V núdzovom režime systému vyčistite počítač použitím softvéru AdwCleaner: https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/ Všetko čo nájde odstráňte.

4. V núdzovom režime systému vyčistite počítač použitím softvéru MBAM free verzia: https://www.malwarebytes.org/. Všetko čo nájde odstráňte. (Pre používateľov Windows XP sú staršie verzie programu v tomto archíve http://www.instaluj.cz/malwarebytes-anti-malware/starsi-verze.

Zdá se že to funguje. Srandovní je, opravilo mi to chybu s windowsem kterou jsem řešil přes rok .. oba programy mám, ale nepoužil jsem je tedka pár měsíců .. no a dneska mi to opravilo i tu chybu s windowsem se kterou si nevěděl ani microsoft :) Asi update verzí kontroluje něco co dřív nedělali .. Je to trošku ironické, když něco mám, nikdy to nepomohlo, rada je použít to znova a pomůže to O.o :)
