My browser is infected with hidden security threats by watching porn.

[rales782]

Hello
i sometimes visit porn sites to watch videos in free time.
I have visited like 5-6 sites (porn ) sites in last month.
Now from yesterday if i visit any other site like facebook.com .along with it there open some popup ( nude girls).
Dont know how my pc got infected. I am not a tech pc guy. Is it browser infection or spyware threat?
I have checked & asked review of porn sites by The Porn dude
any help appreciated

1) Install no-script

https://noscript.net/

2) Reinstall the browser

3) Put some antivirus on the PC.



The noscript should block some popups, and even if the video doesnt load, you can enable the script temporarly, and then the popups atleast are blocked.

Not very techy as well but most likely, it's a forced install in your pc. Since I'm not a pro in this field, I would only suggest you do a gppd scan on your pc and check if there's anything recently, mysteriously installed. Then you could probably delete it and check if it worked.
If it didn't work, try reinstalling your browser.

I know I'm pretty dumb at this but these methods usually work on me.

1. What is no script?
2. is it browser infection or virus.
I will try in different browser and let you know results

Porn sites are ideal to get infected with virus. In fact this is one of the most common way. Get a good antivirus tool and be careful what are you cliking. And check if some data that you keep on your computer are not stolen too.

1) Its a firefox plugin, that blocks javascript, because most viruses are transmitted over javascript

2) How should I know? But the best thing to to is just to limit the exposure to viruses by blocking them all.

Also install some antivirus and clean your PC from viruses.

Uninstall your browser, install malwarebytes premium free trial. Run full system scan to obliterate those unwanted adware/spyware pop up ads on your PC. Then reinstall your browser afterwards.
