gday admin I am getting adds and weird icons

here is a pic of a pop up add that i got as well



there is links to words etc and a funny looking arrow next to them

also there are adds in the top area that has the site info site sponsors etc as well as about half way down the page

they are from a mob called keep now

I have run a virus scan and no threats found

Your Chrome browser has been hijacked.

The best way I have found to fix this is

1) delete all cache and cookies
2) uninstall chrome
3) reinstall Chrome

The Adblock extension will not fix this and it is suspected the hijacking is happening through an extension (quite possibly Adblock). Lots of hits on Google, Google recognize the problem and have a "reset" back to basic configuration, however this doesn't fix the problem. S&D or other malware killers do not find the culprit.

I use Chrome and I think it leaves a lot to be desired, which might give you an indication of how bad I think the other browsers are.

I had this on the laptop a while back, mongrel thing.

In my case I used spybot search and destroy to get rid of it. It did take a couple of reboots and rescans to remove it though, but it did it.

It infesteded itself in all my browsers, and it would highlight certain words. It also did what your pic shows, with the survey crap. It would just change the address you have in yours to whatever web site I happened to be on at the time.

My young bloke is into a program called pivot animator and it appeared right after he got some add ons for it. mongrels.
