  I ran Malwarebytes, then Spybot S&D, completely cleaned everything, and ran AVG quick scan, and it all came back clean

  Did you run any Rootkit scans?

  Yes. Because of the surveys/videos, I run a rootkit scan 3-4 times per week. I run the spyware/malware daily (every time I log off from the internet).

  Good point for those people who only run virus and malware scans, though. A lot of malware/spyware/trojans/viruses can only be deleted if found, and sometimes, the rootkit scan finds things the others missed. Thanks.

  as soon as the page loads click the red X in your address bar....the black video box loads last so it doesn't redirect if you stop it.

  Going to try that now. Sounds like it may work. Thanks.

  The X in the "address bar" right? not the close X on top..

  it shouldn't, it doesn't for me, just stops the ad from redirecting me....
