The title gives it away really, i've come on my laptop today and every single webpage i'm getting a "Related Searches" sidebar, it's big, horrible, ugly and gets in the way and I have no idea how to get rid of it. I haven't downloaded anything in the last few weeks to do this and it's just out of the blue how it popped up. At first I thought it was this site but it's everywhere.

 

I have windows 8 and it's a bitch to use so if you know how to get rid of it i'll need simple to follow steps

Download and run Malwarebytes Anti-Spyware as you could have been hit by a Drive-by Malware attack from visiting a site with a dodgy advert. I would do this in Safe Mode with your Router turned off in case whatever it is tries to phone home and download more crap.

Fixed typo.
