hi, i have recently bought the avast package to become fully protected, and am somehow getting pop up ads all over every page i open on the internet. should avast not protect me from this, and how do i get rid of this virus?
What kind of adds ? Do you get them if other browser is used ? Do you get any alert from Avast! ?
If you think your sys is infected, follow this guide: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0
Open a new topic and attach ( Do not copy/paste ) logs for AdwCleaner, malwarebytes’, OTL, and aswMBR.exe here:

they are mainly " u have won an iphone 5"… and stufff from “coupon drop down”…
and i dont get any warning from avavst. the ads are covering up parts of my screen, if i go to click on a link from a normal page it will redirect me to another ad site…
OK sounds like adware
