How to Solve This AddOn Problem? (3rd Time Asking, 5 Points For Solution That Works)? - Andrew - 11-09-2012 12:10 PM
Recently when I've been on Youtube, videos no longer load but instead they just sit unloaded with the play button ready to be clicked. Once I've clicked the video, it will load, play for 2 seconds and then an ad will appear. Once I've gotten rid of the ad, the video will then restart.
Sometimes the video will start playing, but again after 2 seconds, the ad will then appear. I'll click on it to get rid of it, it will disappear and the video will restart but then the ad will appear again OVER the video while the video plays in the background and I can't get rid of it.
Another instance is: A YouTube ad will play, then as THAT ad is playing, this OTHER ad cuts into this ad and then starts to play.
More examples that I have noticed as well lately are:
- On Facebook, I cannot click on "see more" when someone writes a big post. Nothing happens.
- On YouTube, I can no longer reply to comments using the "reply" function. A box to type my comment will appear, but I cannot send the comment.
It's F-ING annoying. Here's an image if this helps: http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p1/Ay…
All that I can think of is that I have recently installed a program that has implemented it's own tools into the computer. I did recently see what Bearshare was like, but uninstalled it after a few minutes as I didn't like it. Maybe that program has left tools around?
Actually the same has happened with other programs and I haven't been able to get rid of them either. For example sometimes when I go to type a search into YouTube, this history bar appears with recent searches that I have done on other websites. - http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p1/Ay…
Anyway, any suggestions? I will end up breaking something if I have to put up with these stupid ads.
***Please Note:***
I have asked this question a few times and have had no luck.
Mozilla does not solve the problem, nor does Malware Bytes. I have also tried doing a System Restore but nothing happened.
I'd like as many opinions on what is wrong as possible please.
Thanks.
Ps. What is the technical term to use for this problem? (Eg.The ads and toolbar?)
