Is anybody else seeing a bunch of advertisements on facebook? - Jεssica ♥ - 11-09-2012 11:22 AM

I always see advertisements in the middle and sides of my pages, and they're big. like progressive, and other ads. I think it might be something that I downloaded yesterday? I use google chrome.

You must have installed an extensions from the Chrome web store that contains its own adverts.

Type Chrome:extensions in the address bar and disable the extensions one by one until you find the one showing ads.

Also, search Adblock in the Chrome webstore, install it and it will block all ads on all websites, this will help speed up chrome too

You have Adware which also means you probably have spyware, find a Adware and spyware scanner and remove them.

Kim Kamando who is a very popular tech person suggests this

Do you use a laptop? Sometimes it's different for different computers. If it is bothering you, install an ad-blocker.
