ads on internet explorer

I keep getting ads popping up on internet explorer in the lower right hand corner. they say stuff like "you can close this ad after 10 secs". Extremely irritating. Does it on random sites. Anybody else experiencing this?

Sounds like you have some kind of malware. What are the ads for? Anything specific? Sometimes the advertisements can give a clue on the infection, and thus the solution. I would also try running a full scan with Malwarebytes, a free anti-malware program.
