Our Malwarebytes is working well for us. All the free programs, would like you to upgrade. You don't have to. Avast works well for us free, and they want upgrade $$ all the time.
There is a place on the Windows site, that fixes popups. It was years ago a friend had porn ones coming on from a corrupted email picture from a friend. My son found the way to get rid of them from Windows. Try going there and keyword "pop-ups fix".
There is also a way to go into "explorer" and removing it manually, as I did this once. (I picked up a hijack from a ICQ place once) But my son talked me thru that one.
Maybe someone here is brave and can do that for you! I can't recall what I did, as it was over 4 yrs ago!
