Positive Finds Ads

    Not sure if this is the right place to put this, so please move it if there is a more appropriate forum!

    Basically ads from Positive Finds keep popping up on my browser, no matter what sites I visit. I have adblocker, so this appears to be a virus.

    Have googled how to uninstall it/get rid of it but honestly I haven't found anything particularly helpful. I have uninstalled it through the control panel and there isn't any positivefinds extension in Google Chrome. Basically I'm not sure where this is coming from.

    I can't think of anything that I have installed lately that would have caused this. The only thing I can think of is that Bullguard (virus protection programme) recommended I install a few Windows updates from the windows site, and ever since then I get notifications about allowing "plugincontainer.exe." access to the internet. This is the only other change in my laptop I can think of recently.

    Any help would be appreciated!
