It seems to have gone from all browsers now. Thanks all.

This could possibly not be the end of it.
If you want to be safe, transfer whatever important files you want to keep onto a flashdrive. Then wipe your computer.

Update: still happening on chrome though not as often.

I think wiping my system would be last thing on the list, not the next.

Didn't work. And nothing seems out of the ordinary on Chrome extensions.

I apparently can't use that as I have Windows 10?

What website? What did you installed?

i got a file from tradownload

it was supposedly a flash game that led to a .iso instead. I opened it. And then something called "uBrowser" popped up and loaded into torrents or something. I exited it and when I started using the browser, the redirects started.

Go buy a webroot computer antivirus, then boot your computer off the disk drive that comes enclosed.

I'm willing to consider that. Just wondering if there are other free options.
