I keep getting full page crap ads coming on when I'm reading.

Is anyone else getting this or have I got a virus on my laptop?

Could be adware. What browser are you using?

Google Chrome it's only been the past few days but very annoying

Do the pop ups only happen when you are browsing or do they happen on your device in general

If it is when you are browsing, follow these steps

Skip to the part where it says
Remove Google Chrome adware from your browser

Hope this helps.
