Tabs that have nothing but gibberish in the address constantly open when I go to a new site
Just new tabs that have no real address or words. A message comes up and says "URL cannot be loaded". the original tab stays but multiple tabs keep opening. I've scanned for viruses and even researched this problem with literally NO YIELD. People have reported tab problems but none that I saw were even close to my problem. I have a screen shot of what I'm looking at every time it happens.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

If using the above listed scanners does not fix it or if you are blocked from installing those scanners then ask advice on one of the forums that specialize in malware removal mentioned in the Popups_not_blocked article.
