    Why Suspicious webpages are popping up?


    Hi, I am Pratyush


    I recently downloaded something that had installed an adware. Both Windows Security and Avast Say that there is no malware but Sometimes when I click somewhere on a webpage on Chrome, even on Completely safe sites like YouTube, suspicious webpages pop up. I am also experiencing a bit slower performance than normal. Also some white Squares appear on bottom of many webpages. I don't know if this is linked to the Problem but they never appeared before. Also sometimes a bar appears at bottom of webpages saying that "establishing secure connection" and it then redirect me to some sketchy website.

    How can I fix That

    Help me

    Thanks!!

    :)

    Microsoft Edge Webpage Content Flickering Issues with Facebook and Other Websites Which Contain Videos In Their Webpage.

    Hi,

    Let's try to isolate the cause of this issue, we suggest that you use a new
    InPrivate window     and try to go to a webpage with a video again. Follow the steps below:

    • Open Edge.
    • Click on the three dots icon on the upper right part of the screen.
    • Click New InPrivate window.

    If the issue persists, we suggest that you disable hardware acceleration and use software rendering instead of hardware rendering to view the webpage.
    Here are the steps on how to use software rendering:

    • Click Start.
    • On the search bar, type Internet Options, and click on
      Internet Options       from the results.
    • Click on the Advanced tab.
    • Under Accelerated graphics, check Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering.
    Let us know how it goes for us to assist you further.

    A webpage which cannot be deleted.

    All apps » Internet Explorer » options:

    • settings » advanced settings » Get suggestions from Bing as I type: off
    • settings » Data Sense savings: off (otherwise, you surf via a proxy server at Microsoft premises)
    • settings » delete history
    • taps: please, close everything
    Now, if you get that webpage, your network operator is forced to block it. Anyway, you should not see any previous favorites or addresses anymore after the steps above. Or?
