Weird ads

SureYWouldntYa

I'm getting these weird ads that pop up when I search anything on chrome, and I get it on youtube suggestions too

I don't know how this happened, nothing new has been downloaded and nothing I do seems to get rid of it. I erased all browsing history cookies etc from chrome, even uninstalled and reinstalled it and yet still I'm getting these ads

When I search something or click on a video on youtube it pops up after a second or two, sort of in a pop up way. I've adblock installed so I haven't seen an ad on most sites in years. Uninstalling and reinstalling that didn't work either

I have Malwarebytes and done a scan on that and still they're here

They don't get in the way of anything but the fact they're there is annoying me, anyone got any suggestions on what to do? Thanks in advance

Had something similar before and to fix I went to Chrome Settings and setup a new Person under the People section, then once it was active, deleted the other original Person that was there and the new Person was active, no more pop-ups.

May or may not work but worth a try. I too had gone though at least 7 or 8 different malware/adware/ virus removal tools but this is what worked for me.

I had the same issue recently, I tried this and it worked perfectly.

I'd also run JRT too, definitely looks very dodgy.

Thanks so much, this seems to have worked in the few trial searches I've done and youtube videos checked
