How do I remove Skype adware?
I think my skype desktop version got infected by some sort of adware.
Just earlier this morning I noticed that its displaying weird advertisements in skype home and there is a ad section in the contacts (individual) pages .. on top that is (check screenshots).
Home Ad:
Contact page ad:
I tried scanning using the default Windows Defender Security Center, no detection so scanned with Malwarebytes and no detection here ether. Also tried ADW Cleaner and HitmanPro ... ADW Cleaner didn't find anything ether or something removed em all but its still there and HitmanPro found a few adtrackers.
But strangely whatever is effecting my system is only successfully infected skype, browsers or anything else doesn't seem to have any issues but nonetheless I would like to get it fixed.
Any help is much appreciated.
And my system specs:
Asus X555LF
Windows 10 Pro,
Intel® Core™ i3 5010U,
NVIDIA® GeForce® 930M, 2GB DDR3 VRAM,
1TB HDD 5400 RPM
