Is there a way to purge viruses from chrome? - 732 - 05-13-2014 04:01 AM

I think i may have caught a virus on Google chrome. Randomly when i go on a new page, ads will pop up in a new tab or take me to a new site, recommended searches pops up to the right and some text will turn blue linking me to blink box.
Is there a way to get rid of these viruses just on this software? Preferably keeping my preferences (bookmarks etc)
+are these even viruses or spyware or something else?

Scroll tot he bottom and click Show advanced settings
Scroll to the bottom and click the button that says restore browser defaults.
