Seeing pop up or unexpected/annoying adverts on here, you could have "adware" or malware/spyware on your computer.
This type advert software sometimes comes with "free" software you've downloaded or arrives maliciously as a virus and serves up adverts to you depending on what you're looking at on the Internet.
Run something like Malwarebytes , it normally gets rid of them  |
