I've suddenly begun getting random pop ups on fedex,com, ebay.com and amazon.com. They are only related to the site itself. I use PCManager and have whatever their popup blocker is and I'm still getting them. Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

Let me add a clarification - the entire screen changes with no keyboard or mouse activity. It takes me to a different part of the site itself.

What browser are you using? (ie) Chrome, Edge, Firefox etc? Have you tried a different Browser?
You can also go into the Browsers extensions and remove any Extensions you do no use or are aware of.
You can also Reset the Browser to Defaults, removing any malware attached to the browser.
And as stated, run ADWCleaner followed by Malwarebytes.

Using Chrome. I ran ADWCleaner and there was nothing. I"ll call these "redirects" and they don't originate from an extensiosn - they are organic to the individual web site and are another page in the web site.

If they don't stop i can have you run a scan with a different program & it will tell me if there are any bad things causing the pop-ups !

I apologize to the Chrome fan boys, because I have had to put Chrome on my Never More list.
I've removed it from so many of my customer's PC's, where it was trying to take over, and my customer didn't know what it was or how they got it.
That's the MO of a Virus, not a browser.

That's just personal experience, not an opinion. So, I would suggest, that at least for now, UN-Install Chrome from your PC, and see if your problems cease. If they do (cease) then you know where the problem was.
If not, then go ahead and re-install Chrome.

Good Luck,
TM :cool:

I'd give it a try but it sync's with iCloud efficiently and I run a Chromecast with it.
