I have random ads happening, help me make them stop?

[Gabriella]

Never did this happen before and don't know what happened, if you can help me fix it I'll be 10 points of grateful! Okay so today all of a sudden I looked at my facebook page and I had random ads permanently attached to the top of my page. I then got on netflix and they're there too blocking the movie. I don't have an option to close them and I don't know where they came from. Do you know a way I could take them off?

U need to be more clear ..
which browser are you using ???
ok there are 2 possible cases

1.the ads are due to an extension(add-on )of your browser.
in this case ads will show up for each and every webpage you open(even for http://www.google.com)
to solve the problem just go to ur settings and searcg for extensions(add on) and uninstall it ..

2.the ads are offered by a website (like in facebook there are ads on the right pannel thats how they earn) if the ads are pop ups then u may block them by using ad-block app
and if adblock dosent work thn u have to see those apps

that's what happens now when you use any google service or software they steal your data and passwords and read all your mail and browsing and sent targeted ads to your PC, if you are not with google then It's a rootkit go to http://www.bleepingcomputer.com for full instructions, you will need malwarebytes and combofix regular virus programs can't even see rootkits, you have to use malwarebytes in safe mode and even sometimes you have to rename the mbam.exe file because rootkits are programmed to recognize it and disable it
