Help!! With These Blooming Pop-Ups

[ennersdale]

I have McAfee LiveSafe running on my PC & it says there are no virus etc & scans are done regularly.

However, when I start google chrome, I keep getting these blasted pop-ups in the bottom right-hand corner that I have to keep cancelling - and to be honest, they're not very child friendly (if you know what I mean)?

The website concerned seems to be mp3hub.com (or something like that).

Is there anyway I can stop this? I don't know what I've done or if this can be 'fixed' to stop this happening. I'm afraid I'm not very technical with things like this so so is desperately needed!!

Thank you...

You need to remember that even the very best of anti-virus software is often unable to handle malware. For that you need to use a dedicated anti-malware program.

If you've already got the free (or paid) version or Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (MBAM) on your computer, run scan with it to zap the malware which you appear to have.

However I don't recommend downloading the free version now, as it comes with a free trial of the commercial version, which seems to slow some computers to a crawl. So, if you've not already got MBAM, I suggest downloading and running AdwCleaner instead. It's 'out of the same stable' and hence uses the same database of malware, meaning that it should be just as good at doing its job. There's no installation process; you simply run the downloaded file directly:

Try a different browser. (Internet Explorer, Edge, Firefox, Vivaldi, or something else). If the problem vanishes you'll know that it must be related (solely) to Chrome. If so, try resetting Chrome back to its 'out of the box' settings:
