I keep getting an advert on the left half of my screen, but it only appears on the forums TDD, A.net and PA(I've not tested everything). How do I get rid of them?

I've tried a scan, and there don't appear to be any suspicious chrome extensions or home pages.

It's probably something to do with a dodgy adware.

That is adware. Just to make sure though, check on another browser.

Welp, I haven't done anything, I've turned my computer on, it appears to be gone. :|
Anyway, thanks for the help.

Edit: No, it's back. :/ I'll download Adblock.

It's adware, since none of us are getting this, you could have visited a site that added it in, check your chrome plugins/addons and try searching the label of whatever that T stands for

Yeah it wasn't in extentions, which is why I was confused. But I got Adblock, it's gone now (thumbsup

I would still check for the name, adware can leak shit into places you don't want

Hmm, well I'm not sure what it was called. But, like I said, I did a whole computer scan, didn't find anything unusual.
