How do i stop a website from popping up? - steepbaseball183 - 04-27-2014 10:40 PM
Hello, I've been having trouble with a website pop-up.. The website is called http://playfizz.com/ which is just a game website but it will not stop opening. This site does not open in a separate window,but it opens when I'm on the web. This happens when i click on something not relevant at all to that website and it brings me there and i have to use backspace a lot.
(I am using Google Chrome)
Please help (:

so, it is probably a simple fix. You might have accidentally installed something that you can go into your start menu, find the "uninstall program" tab and then scroll until you find that game site and tehn uninstall it.
You might need to strengthen your pop up blocker on you anti virus or in your control panel -
Those are some of the things I can suggest.

Click on Tools > Clear browsing data.4. Uninstall all suspicious extensions from the browser.5. Go to the Settings to restore the browser.

Your computer probably get infected by an adware. You need to firstly find its path in task manager. Then, find out its path and remove it all.
Clean up your browser.
