Question

Adware problem - dsl.mapjs.net

by Dec 19, 2013 12:06AM PST

I've searched here and elsewhere and can't find a solution to this problem.

I keep getting pop up browers tabs in Firefox that open to a url of dsl.mapjs.net. From what I've found online this is adware. Trend Titanium isn't picking this up on a scan and isn't showing it to be a threat. Does anyone know how to remove this? All the websites I've looked on don't provide any information.




Windows 7
Firefox
Trend Titanium is my security software
