How can I stop chrome from auto-opening unwanted ad windows?
There are dozens of exploits that’ll cause chrome to open new windows and tabs with no user interaction whatsoever. All these folks telling you you have malware clearly haven’t spend any time downloading illegal porn, videos or software.First, you need something to block malware servers. uBlock Origin is the best thing going as of this writing. Suppliment that with “privacy badger” and you’ll have a fairly tight solution, but you’ll still get a lot of popunder windows and new tabs.Next, get a second monitor, and place it BELOW your browsing monitor. Most of these exploits work by placing a new 0px. x 0px. window offscreen in the browser, which you can’t see to close. A quick hand will allow you to see these windows before they can load a payload and start annoying you.Finally, when you DO get one of the 100’s of “YOUR COMPUTER IS INFECTED” or “THE FBI HAS BEEN ALERTED TO YOUR ACTIVITY” or whatever threat/scam/etc windows, mouse over the chrome icon in your title bar, and close the window using the red X there, not in the browser window.The only useful plugin i’ve found for this is “Popup blocker (strict)” which is ungodly annoying, but it will stop pretty much anything from opening, including stuff you never thought of as being popups.
How to stop Windows 10 ad pop up?
I have an older laptop, and I only use it a couple of times a week. I do not wish to upgrade to Windows 10, but every time I start my computer I get a pop-up ad for Windows 10. Drives me nuts! The only clickable option in the box is to visit the MS website. Which I did, but found no answers. I started to ask the question there, but it requires I make an account - which I refuse to do - stubborn, I know! Any help to get this particular pop-up to go away permanently would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
How do I stop annoying pop-up ads that keep happening on my Samsung S7?
Factory reset is the easiest way. However, I believe you don't want to resort to this method that quickly.Firstly, what is the latest app that you had installed before the pop-ups occurred? Try to remember and uninstall that app. It should solve the problem.Or you can try Addons Detector - Android Apps on Google Play. Last time I had annoying pop-ups were years ago and I used that app to fix things up. I used to get pop-ups on my tablet every few seconds. I know how annoying it is, believe me.Hope this helps.
