It never hurts to run Malwarebytes - and it's a free program.

Subject: [OM] OT: Advice please on giving my laptop an Enema
I use a Thinkpad T410 laptop running Windows 7. Lately I have noticed
that there seems to be a lot of activity going on which seems to disrupt
the proper operations. Ads appearing in abundance, browsers freezing, a
"securesearch" bar appears at the top of my Chrome page when I try to
type into the Google search bar. I think my whole system needs to be
spring cleaned soonest.
I have Microsoft Security Essentials running and I also run System
Mechanic. I would welcome any authoritative advice in plain English (or
plain American) to help me to properly interrogate and identify any
illegal aliens in my system, destroy same and implement a robust
security; thereafter optimise the darn thing.
Many thanks
David
