"Glass Bottle Ads"

Hi!
I did a quick search before posting, so I hope this topic hasn’t already been covered, but can anyone tell me how to get rid of “Glass Bottle Ads” please? I did a google search, but every site I clicked on brought up an Avast warning… So I didn’t download any of their suggested files (likely more viruses).

This issue only occurs on Google Chrome.

Many thanks!
Marc

Hello,

Please follow this topic and attach required reports (Farbar reports)

https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

Thanks for the quick response!!

I tried Malwarebytes Anti-Malware so far, which found and removed 20+ Glass Bottle pups, but I still have the problem. I’ll continue with the steps (Farbar) and cross my fingers …

Thanks again!

Yes, run Farbar and attach here logs.

Farbar is diagnostic and fix tool.

Hi Argus,

Please find my logs attached. Thanks again for your help! Very much appreciated :slight_smile:
