Is it only me who's getting them? I seem to be inundated with them over the last few days, when I hover over them there's an advert for a free iPad or iPhone. |

Yes, you need a good malare blocker, but you also need to clean the cookies left on your browser and any add-ons, you may have inadvertently installed. Try Ccleaner http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download for cleaning up your browser. All you need is the free version...

Oh and check your add and remove programs, you may have downloaded a bundle of male-ware with a program.
