Computer Help (ads and pop ups)?

Disconnect your computer from the Internet. Even if you have google chrome closed, as long as there is a connection available, the spyware may be connecting and causing damage. Unplug your computer from its modem or the modem from the wall.

Check your "Add/Remove Programs" list from the control panel. If you see a spyware program listed, uninstall it. If you see a program you are not familiar with but are unsure whether it is spyware, check it out before removing it.

Run your antispyware program. If you run it and are still receiving pop-ups, especially if you are still disconnected from the Internet, turn your computer off. Start it again and press the F8 key repeatedly until you see the "Safe Mode" option. Run the antispyware program while your computer is in safe mode.

Revert your system to a date in time prior to the spyware infiltration. Go to the Start menu and point to "All Programs." Point to "Accessories" and then point to "System Tools." Click "System Restore" and follow the instructions on the "System Restore Wizard."
