[dba-Tech] Brutal Crapware

Hi Arthur:

Are you not running Windows 8.x and Linux which should both be almost impervious to malware?

Somewhere, somehow, I picked up some crapware that is without doubt the
rudest I have ever encountered. When I'm running Chrome, every few minutes,
a very loud commercial appears in a window in the lower right corner of the
Chrome window -- no matter which tab I'm on. Yes, I can close these annoying
little bastards, but they are sooo distracting (which, from their point of
view, means they are a success).

These ads do not appear in FireFox. I don't know about IE since I seldom if
ever use it.
