Thanks for your reply. I have run approximately six different malware and antispyware programs as well as Windows Defender and I use Avast Premier as my antivirus program. Whenever I run Chrome, all seems ok for a minute and when I select another website, I start getting tabs popping up with Techfreehelp.com in each heading. I can't hardly x them out fast enough as they come up one after another. I finally have to close Chrome down and use my Avast browser with no problems. All the scans never find any reference to this spyware and I really like Chrome. I have even uninstalled it and re-installed it to no avail. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gary

Seriously, I expected better from Tom's Hardware forum. Every link to fixing my issue only tries to sell a program. I must be the only one in the world with this issue. I won't clutter your forum with stupid questions again.
