I get pop-up warnings every time I connect my computer to the internet, no matter what router or hotspot. I’ve attached the logs. Nothing is detected by Malwarebytes or RogueKiller when I scan. Hopefully I can get some help!
Could you let me know if this stops it

Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

Ran FRST and AdwCleaner, and it definitely works! What exactly did the notepad document and FRST do to remove the popups? I’m curious as to how this worked, too. Thanks!
At the bottom of the fix log (which you forgot to post
)
Will be a list of several bits tasks cancelled. That is where it was hiding
Any further problems
I have had the same problem, and although I have run the Farbar Recovery Tool and looked on the text file for errors/infections, I can’t seem to find anything. Any suggestions?
