So I have this problem where ads pop up in Chrome and Steam. I'm using AdBlocker for Chrome which makes it obvious it's a virus. Already ran virus scans and adwcleaner, but the problem persists, as you can see the image of an ad in steam.

I've had this problem before but that time running adwcleaner and deleting some file manually made the ads disappear. Not this time though.
Any suggestions are welcome since I really don't know what else to do.
 
I'd format/reinstall, yeej, done. Then think in the future. Problem solved in the best way. :)

(if that's an option, anyway.)
 
Solution


Trying to avoid this but it looks more and more like it's the only way
 
Get a bunch of antivirus software like Malwarebytes antimalware. Or just reinstall chrome. Also, go into programs and features and see if any adware programs are installed.
 


I have an antivirus (SYmantec endpoint protection) and already unistalled chrome...but as I said the ads pop up even in the steam browser
