    I have a very annoying pop up message that appears on the end of my screen when I visit almost every website from forums to news sites. It says Trust Rating and a percentage next to it, I have to close it down manually each time. Any idea what this is and how to get rid of it? Bear in mind Im in no way a computer expert, have a very basic knowledge of laptops. For what its worth I have McAfee security and AdBlock installed but Im not too failiar with advanced setting etc.

    Can anyone advise? Thanks in advance :)

    Lately I have been getting pop up adds, I never go into them but when you click to close them down it will take you to some other site selling something. At the bottom right hand cornor is "ads by adorkia" does anyone know how to stop them from popping up. I have McAfee anti virus installed on my PC.

    By any chance are these sites you can stream videos on? If so they're designed to get you to click as many ads as possible - they're taking a risk putting copyrighted material online so they want to benefit as much as possible..... Try the plugin adblock plus, can't guarantee it will work
