I'm plagued with survey prize center/groupon offers!!! Every 15 seconds they pop/up. I can hardly use my computer.
PLEASE HELP ME!! Every few seconds Mozilla Firefox interupts me with an offer from the Survey Prize Center or and offer from Groupon. I can hardly work on my computer. I have to stop and X it out and continue. It's such a nuisance. If not stopped I will not use Firefox!!! There's no place for me to unsubscribe. I've tried everything!!! Can you help me, please?

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
