Annoying pop-ups

Finally found the cause, I was running an ad blocker (quantunadblocker), Norton didn’t like the add blocker so blocked the ad blocker on every page when opened in Edge. Unable to uninstall the ad blocker, as Norton kept disabling access and blocking the adblocker, so ended up in a loop.
Only option, shut down Norton, remove ad blocker, restart Norton and hope ad blocker hasn’t resurfaced
