That's just a basic ad blocker. If the problem continues then just re-install chrome.

Mcafee is the worst Antivirus program ever. I would recommend installing Malwarebytes and scan your PC with that.

Mcaffee is useless. Literally. Better off having no protection at all than using it. Like the guy above said download Malwarebytes and run a scan. The virus is also probably an installed extension and you can probably see it in my programs. I would suggest using Revo Uninstaller instead of the windows uninstaller since revo nukes every single piece of data of whatever program you uninstall using it.

Also try ADWcleaner that helps remove most of the adware junk.

Malwarebytes isn't a antivirus, but you should install malwarebytes and something like avast.

hit WindowsKey+R then type "inetcpl.cpl" then hit enter
click the advanced tab then restore advanced settings then click apply then click reset and then ok
after that open chrome and go to google.com and search for "google srt" download it and run it
should fix your problem if not message me.
