Problem noted, can assist.

Can I see a screenshot of your add-ons/extensions?

It just stared now. I haven't recently used Google Translate either

Answer 4

Have you tried restarting your computer?

Answer 5

Yes I have

Answer 7

Screenshot your entire screen for me, please.

Answer 8

Alternative solution:
Most Chromebooks can run a version of Linux. Scrap the crapware, and install a good distro.

Possible solution:
You toggled a setting possibly.

Answer 10

I just closed this tab and opened a new one. So far it hasn't popped up yet

Answer 16

What anti-virus are you using?

Answer 17

It is a built in Anti-Virus

Answer 18

Chromebook = Secure, no threats.

Answer 19

Huh odd. @sammixboo , try this:

Tools > Options > Under the Hood > Translate and deselect the box next to "Offer to translate pages that aren't in a language I read."

Answer 20

@Opcode , that's actually a myth. Same with macbooks. They get viruses, too.

Answer 21

My PSP and phone have both had viruses as well.

Answer 22

I would like you to say that to Google who offers 1M in the iPwn competition in trying to infect it.

Answer 23

Not Chromebook's are based on a Linux kernel, you need superuser to access the good files. It makes infecting it quite painful to infect. Macbooks are closed-source so no comment.

Answer 24

It isn't popping up anymore, but now I can't close my question. The whole 'close/bump' part is gone

Answer 25

Refresh maybe?

Answer 26

Yeah I got it. I just opened a different tab

Answer 27

OS has been really weird for me lately >_<

Answer 28

But OS loves you a lot...isn't it ?

Answer 29

Make sure your Chromebook is updated to the latest.

Answer 30

*version.

Answer 31

It is :) It updates the second an update gets released

Answer 32

It's a simple myth though - any hardware connected to the internet is at risk. Even macbooks get viruses.

Answer 33

Mhmhm

Answer 34

Shall I explain why in theory it is unlikely Chromebooks will get a virus?

Answer 35

Go for it. I am brbing anyways ;D

Answer 36

If all fails, Sam, try download Hitman Pro 3 and scan your computer.

@Opcode - I know it's not likely, but it is still possible.

Answer 37

Chromebook won't let me download anything but images

Answer 38

I am trying to figure this out as well

Answer 39

@sammixboo you can install Ubuntu on a Chromebook I believe.

Answer 40

I worked on a 2013 Macbook Retina (13 inch) Pro that had a virus on it.

Answer 41

It just tells me I need another file to support this download look here for more info, blah blah

Answer 42

I personally keylogged my wife's Macbook.

Answer 43

Brb >_<

Answer 44

I believe it Op. Hehe.

Sammix, you might need additional software. Maybe your drivers have gone looney.

Read everything twice before you actually do anything.

@Compassionate I take no chances.

Answer 46

Yeah, if I put a keylogger on my fiancee's computer she'd strangle me.

Answer 47

The art is making the keylogger silent, then hacking every website she uses and make them push the logs to your private computer, which is locked, physically and software wise.

Answer 48

Answer 49

Hmmm?
