The whole process will take less than 40 minutes (bad cases will take up to 2 hours) and will leave your computer running smoothly especially if you have accumulated annoying pop ups and malware/viruses.

pop ups and malware/virus removal2) Download and install ccleaner: This program has two buttons you need to use “Analyse” and “Clean”. This programs will clear out unwanted temporary files that have accumulated. You might want to un-tick some of the check boxes to keep things such as recently typed url’s, however the default options are ok.

pop ups and malware/virus removal3) Download and install Malwarebytes Anti Malware: Once installed press the “Fix Now” button, once the scan is complete (20min-40min) click “remove selected” items. This program is an excellent tool for cleaning out any viruses/malware your antivirus software might have missed.
