Question

web-start.org Virus or Browser add-on- Younus Shah

by Oct 9, 2016 11:04PM PDT

Hello,

A few day ago I have clicked on ads and web-start.org has been installed on my pc and everytime when I open my browsers and clicked on any website, ads are automatic opened.

Please provide me a relevant solution so that I will remove it from my pc. It is very irritating.

Thanks
Younus Shah
