I am new on here so please forgive me if I am in the wrong forum, but I am being driven demented by pop ups! I have run a full system scan, that got rid of 5 infected files and I have run the avast toolbar clean up and that was great, got rid of loads, but I can’t get rid of this one, URL begins with
http://www.buildathome.info/ it keeps saying “PC Performance is Poor” and stuff like that
I could post the whole URL if it helps
It seems to be from adyield manager, please help if you can, don’t know what else to do :-
Many thanks
Please attach your logs. (AdwCleaner, MBAM and OTL…!!)

It seems PPLive network is on my computer, which I share with my sons. Do you want me to run the OT scan again or did our messages cross?
“Also is the redirect in all browsers” sorry, don’t know what this means
OK as long as you are aware of that programme
Do you get the popups in IE, Firefox or both ?
Could you run the OTL fix I posted and let me know if that cures it
we only use IE, and when you say, as long as I am aware of that programme, well, I’ve just spotted its there, I don’t know what it is or whether I should get rid of it?
Really appreciate your help 
ok I just googled pplive network - I want rid of it please!!! Can I just uninstall it?
Yes uninstall from control panel
Dunnit! Thank you so much, you have given me my life back, all pop ups gone - now just got to keep the pesky kids away from it all through the holidays ;D My laptop is also slow, gonna follow that sticky with that too now, thanks again
OK if all is well then run OTL and press the cleanup button…
What is the problem with the laptop ?
Laptop is slow, and then freezes, even date won’t change! I will run OTL on desk top now, am running all initial scans on laptop currently.
You guys are amazing
Keeps me off the streets and out of the pubs
Glad to hear it! So the laptop has now run the malwarebytes and the ad scan and is now into its 2nd hour of running the OT scan, because it keeps saying "not responding’ and then it does for a while, then stops again, any suggestions
What area does it stop responding at… It should say at the bottom of the GUI
Ok, am on laptop now, should I start a new thread or continue here?, all scans are completed eventually
ok this msg may post twice, such is the frustration with this laptop, should I start a new thread or post scans here?
well, the not responding thing comes up on everything, here are the scans, there wasn’t a 2nd otl one
