How do i get rid of this ad on my computer? - BunnyBoo - 02-28-2013 12:49 AM
hi i have this ad (i think its an ad) that shows up on every site i go to facebook, yahoo everything. the ad shows girls wanting to talk. im a girl myself so i don't care for it and i have a little brother and i dont want him to see that stuff.. Its inappropriate and i would like to delete them. How do i get it so it stops showing up??

Sounds like spyware/ adware. Download a program called Spybot Search and Destroy and update it and then do a scan on your computer. It's free and user friendly.

Download Malwarebytes Anti-malware, update and run a quick/full scan... if it's malware that will remove it for you:

It could be just an ad though... if so you can download Ad Blocker:
Chrome version: http://adblockplus.org/en/
Firefox version: http://adblockplus.org/en/firefox
IE version (adblock pro): http://www.adblockpro.com/download.htm
Hope this helps!

Use the Google Chrome browser and install ADBlocker from the chrome web store.
Its completely free and simple to install.....Apart from blocking ads like yours it also blocks annoying ads that are there on yahoo, game sites etc.
