I am using chrome...it's the one I always use unless I have to use IE, and the one I have been using through this whole process

Does the same thing happen in IE?

No, it doesn't seem to happen there, but pop-ups seem rampant no matter which browser I use since just before this malware thing too. How do I control some of this and get my system running efficiently and safely? What is the best way to maintain this in the future?
