Few days ago I noticed a new phenomena in chrome

1) Whenever I visit a new website, the first click on the site results in a new tap with ads in it and directs me to a website called the theadsgateway.com.

2) When searching in Google, some weird results appear on the top of the page with label "Strong Signal ads"

3) When visiting some websites, three ads appear at the bottom of the page. Two squares and one is rectangular in the middle. Also with label "Strong Signal ads".

Following some instructions I found on the Internet, I uninstalled Strong Signal(which I don't remember installing) from Control Panel and removed the extension Strong Signal from Chrome Extensions. This didn't help and the three things I mentioned above still happen and whenever I restart my computer I find the extension Strong Signal in my Chrome extension like I never removed it before.

Please help.

    You have malware. The first step to remove is to delete the user profile for Chrome, after you backup, the important data files.

  • @MrA1 Yes, both MalwareBytes and HitmanPro are safe to use.
