Good luck.
Somehow I managed to get some sort of bug on my IE on my work PC. I'm getting bombarded with ads and sometimes getting redirected to different websites. It's not happening on Chrome. Just on IE. However, some websites I use for work require IE. So, I need to get this fixed. I tried running Malwarebytes (free version), and AVG AntiVirus (free version). Neither found anything, but there's definitely something wrong. I want to try to avoid spending money as it is not my PC. So, does anyone know of a free fix?
