How can I remove a box advertising unwanted at the top of the screen.

I erased my computer of all viruses and bugs, cleaned the registry and reinstalled Firefox 23.0.1, but the ad box still shows on any web page except Mozilla sites.

I use Windows 8. Microsoft safety scanner does not work with Win8.
I ran MalWareBytes Pro and the system is clean.
I finally found the problem. The new computer with Win8 came with a program called "Hot Spot Shield." I saw the ad. Hot Spot Shield as part of the advertising for unwanted. I deleted the program "Hot Spot Shield" and Firefox 23.0.1 now works correctly with no pop-up ads.

A POX on all these unwanted programs that come with new computers.

Thanks for the help, guys, but this is news you can use.

  • How can I get my taskbar to return to the screen of origin for windows 7

    My taskbar is suddenly appeared on the left side of my screen, I did the thing to slide down, but now all my desktop icons appear at the bottom in my taskbar... How can I get off the desktop icons?

    It seems that you have accidentally selected them while you are dragging.

    Check that there is nothing that complicates the issue by going on the desktop, make a click right, then clear rearrange icons &, if you wish, clear align icons on the grid as well.

    Now you can drag the icons to the desired location.

    Check the settings for click-and - dragging in the Panel where you are accidentally dragging things around without realizing the mouse.  "click-and - drag" is a pretty common term, but it may be slightly different for your mouse.

    Good luck
