Whenever I click on an active field in the browser, a new window with advertise opens. I want a solution on this problem.
Whenever I click to start putting details in the active field on browser web page a new window opens with advertise. I have to close this every time. This happens also when I click on a youtube video link or any active tab.
I am fed-up.. I have stopped all plug-ins and add-ons, installed the browser again... still the problem persists.
Help!

Sounds like a dose of Malware on that PC.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
- Microsoft Safety Scanner
- MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware
- Anti-Rootkit Utility - TDSSKiller
- AdwCleaner (for more info, see this alternate AdwCleaner download page)
- Hitman Pro
- ESET Online Scanner
Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
