starting a week ago , I don't know what I clicked, now the Google Chrome browser always pop up a new tab to a website once or twice approx. every 24 hours with loud noise --- "I can help you earn.........."
Once the tab is closed, it happens again another 12 hours or 24 hours
How can I clean it out??? What did I do to get this ridiculous adware??
Just checked--- The site is ---theprofitsmaker.net

Try these 2 malware detectors i have been using them for over a year and they are made by malwarebytes, run JRT first then adwcleaner as it needs to reboot if it finds anything.

After performing a scan, you can also reset Chrome to its default settings.

It might be something as "harmless" as a change in homepage setting, scheduling the page to open at some interval (if that is possible in chrome) or it could be something much more nefarious. In any case, malwarebytes should be your first step.
If you want to take the overkill approach, you could use something like tronscript, but use at your own risk.
annoying ,disgusting advertisement in Google Chrome
