When I click the x to close the page I'm on I have a pop back that says Agora Inc. After a search it appears to be a scam. Any way to get rid of it?

Thank you

I'm not finding much of anything on agora inc. Have you run a scan with Malwarebytes?

There seems to be quite a bit about Agora Inc. and none of it good.

However there is no way to tell why you should be seeing a reference to it in your browser.

Does this happen with any url in your browser or a specific url?

That's the same search result I got... they seem to be some kind of a marketing company. But I couldn't find anything about them as computer malware. Another place you might look is in your browser add-ons.

Might also be from something in your Internet cache.

After Malwarebytes, a run through with CCleaner would be a good idea too...
