    remove or block "www.greenstyle.it"


    A few days ago, ads have begun to appear on my screen with the source indicated GreenStyle - Ambiente, energie rinnovabili, salute e benessere. It is an Italian website when, if opened, has many pages of ads. I can read Italian and the pop ups seem harmless. However, 1, the continuous pop ups are annoying and 2. I've had similar seemingly harmless pop ups that turned out to be malicious software.

    Any help on how to delete and/or block it would be much appreciated.

    You can log into your Router and block it there.
    Or, you can let us know what brower you're using in order to block it there.
    Or, you can let us know what security software you use - so we can see if you can block it there.

    There are other, more complicated ways. You can get other, more expert advice on them in the Network and Sharing forum: https://www.tenforums.com/network-sharing/

    I have no idea you could, let alone how, to block things from the router . Can you help me with that?

    Or, you can let us know what brower you're using in order to block it there.dng
    My bad for not providing these details which you would obviously need to know. Sooo....
    I have a lenovo MODEL: G580 idea pad laptop running on Windows 10 using the google chrome browser.

    2. I've had similar seemingly harmless pop ups that turned out to be malicious software.
    3. it is something I never heard of nor downloaded.

    Any help on how to delete and/or block it would be much appreciated.

    Sounds like some sort of infection so moving to system security.

    In Chrome, type chrome://extensions/ into the address bar to check for any extensions that may be causing the issue.
