    Keep popping up on my screen, extremely obtrusive. Also keep turning words into articles into links which offer me the chance to take surveys for money. I've run Ccleaner, and also uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome, as well as deleting Hola and Zenmate, as I suspect these could be to blame, but no luck. I've also run several virus scans which turned up nothing. Any help would be appreciated as I'm getting immensely p'd off.

    Go to Chrome settings and disable the extensions. Has worked for me numerous times.

    I thought I'd removed Hola but it was still there. Have taken it off, along with some other crap which I didn't install. Hopefully it will do the trick. Cheers.
