Do you still download movies? That could be a place you are picking up viruses and malware.

[edited] Elroy, no fb message from your ipad proves the problem is not on the web, but is on your desktop.
ESET seems to be just another online scanner.

ESET is an IT security company headquartered in Bratislava, Slovakia that was founded in 1992. The company was awarded as the most successful Slovak company in 2008, 2009 and 2010. ESET offers anti-virus and firewall products

If you think the problem originates from the desktop, I'd unleash the usual scanners there:

your AV
Malwarebytes
etc

I'd also check if anything was installed lately.
You may have an ESET pup

[edit] I see you already vetted ESET and are running it. Good work :)

Hi Elroy,

Trend micro is excellent (and reasonably priced).

I also use wise365 to clean up my PC - which is free.
