Hello frankmims,

This is the suport forum for Spybot.

You most likely have an unwanted browser extension or a malicious program installed on your device.

Optional Installs

 When installing new software or updates be watchful for the inclusion of toolbars or other software. This includes browsers and add-ons which change your default homepage and/or search engine. Such may recommend fake updates and install unwanted programs without your knowledge.

Please read the End User License Agreement (EULA) and avoid clicking through in a hurry without looking for pre-checked boxes. Or you may end up with an unwanted program, one that could be time consuming to remove.Choose a custom install if offered so one can opt-out of any unwanted third party software or additions. Some users may find the offers useful but make sure you know what you are agreeing to.
