Recently I reset my PC for reasons of my own, it started swell then I CONTINUED to get Pop-Up windows whenever I click ANYWHERE. I get script error after script error popping up one after another, I get corner Advertisements by AllDaySavings and NO YouTube videos are working.. it always automatically sets them in HD, and LD doesn't even load either. Also there's a program, Yahoo! Search that always pops up on my Desktop, I delete it and it returns. It's not in the Control Panel either

OS: Windows 7
Browser: FireFox w/ AdBlocker Plug-In

I've never had this problem before. /: Thanks for all those who help. [:

Apparently, Google is paying Adblocker to put adds on Youtube. So yeah....

You might want to download [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] to stop the ads on your desktop.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] is needed if you haven't already got it to watch youtube. I dont see why you wouldnt want to watch it in 1080p but oh well...

Another easy way to get rid of rubbish is by going into Programs and Uninstall programs. You should be able to easily find what you have downloaded to cause all them ads. Most likely a tool bar or something.

You should look at getting an Antivirus suite if you currently do not have one, Bitdefender offer their Internet Security free for six months and thats a full version not a trial with skimmed features.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Also you should use programs like AdBlockPlus, however if that does not stop the problem on your browser of choice then consider using a different one altogether if uninstalling/reinstalling doesn't remedy the problem.

As for Yahoo! starting up automatically, Bitdefender have a startup optimiser that easily allows you to deactivate programs from initiating on startup.
