So recently I've been getting a Tab Pop up of this GFK internet thing. I just brushed past it when around 20 minutes later I get it again. It Tabs me out whatever im doing in an application like gaming which is really frustrating.

Ive reinstalled Chrome...didn't work 

Ive Used other browsers...didn't work

Any help?

Thanks

Ive also attached an image of the pop up.

Run a malware scanner (like malwarebytes) and a virus scanner.

 

If that does not work, Hitmanpro.

Found this online:

GfK Internet-Monitor is usually set up in the C:\Program Files\GfK Internet-Monitor 2.0 folder, depending on the user's option. The full command line for uninstalling GfK Internet-Monitor is MsiExec.exe /X{5F0545E7-3F0F-4730-AF70-26E61DBDF263}. Keep in mind that if you will type this command in Start / Run Note you might receive a notification for admin rights.

Try uninstalling it using the Control Panel. If that doesn't work then download ADWCleaner here: https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/
