Plunderstorm is here. Why no player housing or solo mode?

So I think I have a simple virus somewhere. I dont know much about that stuff but what happens is every maybe 10-15 seconds a stupid advertisement video pops up in my browser on the bottom right of the screen. No matter what webpage im on and stuff like that it just always pops up different ad videos and it annoying as hell especially when im watching netflix. How do I remove this? I dont think my free internet protection is working. Could also use a sujjestion on that aswell tried comodo and hated it it kept popping up repeatedly asking me to verify shit and even when I accept it pops up and asks again. Dont have comodo anymore though.

Did you download anything lately? Might be a browser "app" that piggybacked the download like those browser bars.

As already stated http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...pes-of-viruses is a great sticky for people with no background in this sort of thing,

Uninstall and reinstall your browser. The stuff in the thread mentioned also works well.
