Annoying Ads in reply box threads

Hello everyone, since about 1 month ago I can't answer any thread in the WoWs forum, I can't enter my profile either. When I want to reply a thread, in the reply box appears annoying advertisements and gives me no chance to write anything. This happens in Opera, Firefox, Safari and IE browsers. 
I've already tried everything, running full scan antivirus, uninstalling the browsers, installing them again, cleaning the registry, scanning with lots of antimalware software, checking the windows host file... but nothing worked. Damn advertising is still there and I can't replay any thread. Everything leads me to that the only solution would be format.
Here a screenshot. Any ideas? Thank you!

It looks like you have some adware on your computer. Download some computer security program and scan your computer for that stuff.

Tried everything, antivirus and antimalware soft

I wonder if your network settings have been hacked and you're pointing  to a proxy. That would explain no viruses detected and the ads appearing on multiple browsers.

First you appear to possibly be scamming someone because the source for that image also ties back to the same server as a proper search of the page source for the image you are posting, namely "cdn-messrm-na.gcdn" dot co. Strange eh? 

 

And look what google returns for a search of that server:

Interestingly enough we all know that is not the World of Warships official forum. 

 

So either you are spamming everyone to click your link or you did not read before you clicked the link. 

 

If you are having serious problems then don't tell us you "did" restore everything and it didn't fix it. 

 

So come again... tell us exactly again what you think we need to believe because I'm doubting you right now. Could be just b'cause it's Monday morning.

You might try doing a recovery, going back to a date before the ads starting showing up.

No restore point si cant restore.

Many of these virus proggys delete your restore point so that you can't go back. Ask yourself - what would you lose if you just format the hard drive?  If yes..then start backing up what you want to use again. The only problem is that some programs are embedded into the .EXE and then become recreated again on the next new system. Its a vicious cycle.  But unless you can get to know what adware program it exactly is I see no way out other than FORMAT /S  so to speak. 

 

Also for times like this its nice to have a cheap Chromebook so you can communicate normally.

Reset your router to factory defaults and then change the password. Usually there is a button on the router to do this. Try this before you end up reformatting everything on your pc.

You need to completely wipe your PC and install a brand new Windows install without overwriting. You need to do a full clean install.

 

If you can't do that, then try Malware Bytes. Might help but you are not guaranteed to have a clean environment.
