I put the kettle on a couple of times! Here is the kaspersky scan. Looks like I have a problem!
Regarding the ads, the last one just appeared and took up the whole screen of the computer. It wanted to install programs that had to do with registry, anti virus, and other stuff supposedly to protect my computer. I have kicked myself for not writing down what the name of the "company" was. I kept trying to click the red "x" at the top right hand side of the screen to close it but it would not go away. Finally, however, it did close but I could hear my computer running as though something was going on. The ads in the past did not come up taking up the whole screen and they appeared when i was going to a new site. Those did not happen often but were hard to close also. The other problem I was talking about was getting a white blank area when I would try to close something. An example would be; if I clicked down the favorites button to go to one of those sites and, then, when I clicked on the site I wanted to go to; the area that the favorites section took up on the screen would just turn white instead of disappearing.
I am working on the Internet Explorer problem but haven't gotten anywhere with it yet.
