>>>This seems to get rid of ads in skype and other things for me:
>>>www.admuncher.com - I've used this thing for years and it's great - plus now it's free :)
>>>
>>>This thing as it fixes some things that Spyboot Destroy and Malware Bytes miss. Yes pain in the neck to have to run 3 of these things but it's worth it if you have concerns.
>>>https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/ - and it's also free.

>>Thanks, I'll get these two as I have 2 other bad symptoms:

>>1. I am no longer hearing sound from Chrome in UT when I get replies (although I do have setting set)
>>
>>2. When I was browsing LifeJournal, I got a popup saying my system is infected and I need to call such and such number. I closed that page right away (e.g. the page with that popup), but I am concerned as my husband also got similar popup once in the past and we closed the browser then as well.

>I'm not sure about why you're not hearing sound. Make sure the sound volume for the chrome app is turned up. The volume mixer in Windows 7 has settings for each application.
>As for popups and ads in chrome - ha well that is another problem for sure. In addition to the admuncher app..I use these extensions:
>adblock
>Ghostery
>adblock plus
>adguard bocker
>privacy badger
>https everywhere

>If I just go to cnn.com - all these things together block over 80 things. I never see any ads anywhere. It's a shame that we have to go to so much trouble to avoid these things - but once you have it setup right it makes surfing the net a lot better experience.

I've installed the addMuncher and I also used the advice I got earlier to add block skype and I added it in Google Chrome Settings. Now I decided to check if it works, I opened Skype and I see the ad still. So, is it not working?

Also installed the adwcleaner and it cleaned a couple of things.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
