Unfortunately, you are most likely a victim of adware and/or spyware. Adware installs on your computer without your knowledge and will bombard you with ads. The solution is to download antispyware programs to remove them. There are several free antispyware programs, such as: Lavasoft's Ad Aware and Spybot Search and Destroy. Both are free and very effective. You can find both at: http://www.filehippo.com/software/antispyware/.
Download both programs and install them. Update them and then run scans using one program at a time. If you need instructions on how to use them, go to:
