      Well, my elation was premature. I am still getting those pop up windows. Now McAfee is being touted. Same appearance otherwise. And sometimes there is a blank page that pops up and I have to refresh. One thing I didn’t mention in my first post is that the problem seems to be coming exclusively through the Washington Post website. Even though I am a paid subscriber, the WAPO has a very aggressive and annoying ad display. I tolerate it because I like the writing. One of the advertisers(TEMU) posts them with seizure inducing flashes.

      So, I have installed Adguard extension for firefox. That seems to be working. It has taken all the ads from the WAPO site and disappeared them. Even with the crossword puzzle.

      Hopefully this works,

      Ted

      I hope it has. I followed the instructions in the first two responses above. Which resulted in a hit on the Malwarebytes scan. I quarantined it and hope I don’t see it again. I’ve attached a jpeg of the scan results.

      Thanks for your help.
