    I think you'll find that type of adware installs itself as a program. Have a look in your programs and see does anything look odd and uninstall it with a uninstaller tool.

    I think that's what I did.

    can you post the malwarebytes log

    Try a different browser and see if it still occurs, it might be a browser add on that got bundled in with something you downloaded.

    I'm getting the same thing, bloody nightmare to get rid of. There's a program installing chrome extensions without approval. Malwarebytes has found it a few times, but when I restart my computer the extension reappears. It's called "re-markable"

    Delete the browser and then download it again.
