    i constantly get this pop up every 15-20 minutes. i checked in the installed programs but it is not showing. i tried to stop the service (disable) but it is not showing in list of services. please help me un-install it. I am sure that it is related to O.S as this pop up comes as i use different programs (in the above case it is opera browser)

    :)

    Annoying Pop Up

    Annisa,

    Can give it a try as it wont harm you in anyway.

    -Run <<Disk Cleanup>>and
    delete (at ləast) Temporary files,
    Offline web pages and Temporary Internet Files as this will reduce scanning times by security software –IE browser
    clear your cache, cookies, and history, press Ctrl-Shift-Delete – then
    shut down and restart your computer.

    Follow these steps:

    -Scan your computer with AdwCleaner <<Download AdwCleaner>>

    -Scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware <<Free Anti-Malware & Malware Removal>>

    -Scan with HitmanPro <<Download HitmanPro>>

    -(OPTIONAL) Reset your browser to default settings <<How to reset Mozilla Firefox to Default Settings (2017 Help Guide)>>

    <<How to reset Google Chrome settings to default (Complete Guide)>>

    <<How to reset Internet Explorer to Default Settings (2017 Help Guide)>>

    <<How to Reset Microsoft Edge in Windows 10>>

    -If you don't have an ad blocker installed I suggest you use Adblock Plus. Once installed click on its
    ABP icon at the top of the browser(s) and choose Filter Preferences. Then
    UNcheck the box next to Allow some non-intrusive advertisements.


    <<Adblock Plus for Edge browser>> - <<Adblock
    Plus for IE    >> - <<Adblock
    Plus - Chrome Web Store    >> - <<Add-ons for Firefox>>

    Do you think it's spam or a scam?

    Hi,
    Welcome to the forums, go to settings (click the Opera logo), click "websites" in the left pane, select "Do not allow any site to show pop-ups".

    Thank you for the reply, your recommendation "Do not allow any site to show pop-ups" is already checked. I am sure that it is not a browser problem as i am getting same pop up suggesting other software's.
