    Hey, Recently I've been getting a lot of malware from romulations ads. >:O
    And it took me a while to get this to work but I wanna show ppl how to get rid of the viruses.

    Step 1. Please download Malwarebytes Anti - Malware from this link http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html?tag=mncol

    Step 2. Reboot your computer and while its rebooting keep tapping F8. Then choose safe mode with networking and click enter.

    Step 3.Rename the malwarebytes setup to a bunch of numbers.

    Step 4. Right Click the setup and click properties.

    Step 5. Go to the 7th tab and make it compatible with windows 95.

    Step 6. Apply and run and finish the setup.

    Step 7. Open Malwarebytes and choose 'Quick Scan'. (MAY TAKE A WHILE)

    Step 8. When It is finished click Show Results then click Remove Selected.

    You realize you could just tell us what ads are causing the problem so we could remove them and no one else would have to worry about it, right?

    Its much simpler for everyone that way and it makes the site all the more pleasant to go through.

    How can an ad affect you if you don't click on it?

    I never had such a problem-never trust ads...
