As the title says anyone else getting the search with bing bar and also assorted pop up ads when clicking on links or even right clicking on a page. Just trying to make sure it was actually something GOG added and not something hacked in or site infected malware.
Sounds like adware.
2nd the adware suggestion. It ain't gOg.

Hmm this is the only website it occurs on though. Even get a search with bing entry in my right click context menu and only on this site. This also just started today, and I've been having the page constantly loaded for the past few days for the great sale deals.
I'll run a full system scan but not sure what is going on because as I said this is the only web page/site affected.
Not sure what to tell you, then, except to run your scans and also install the AdBlock+ browser add-on. That add-on squelches most of the junk unless you have a malware infection.
I don't get pop ups with Bing, which would not want that since it's trying to compete with Google. So you likely do have adware and should run a scan with your anti-spyware/adware software.
Try the free version of MalwareBytes just to be sure. It's not perfect but it picks up on a lot of bad stuff.
hhmm some free anti-virus add intrusive add-ons to your browser that offer to 'compare prices' and stuff like that. Check your add-ons too, okay?
I will add on to the others saying to scan your PC - that is a symptom of an infection. Could be a Bing search bar that was either compromised or downloaded from a non MS site (either mistakenly or through a proxy that looked like the proper url), could be (as another user suggested) an addon for your browser that you thought was nifty (but has a backdoor in it).

Any time you see that sort of behaviour you should turn your paranoia meter to 11 and start full system scans (preferably with a new source if you are already using protection), I always keep an updated anti spyware/virus on a thumb drive [along with other tools] in case my paranoia alarm gets tweaked.
It seems to have been something called offerswizard virus or malware and it was installed yesterday sometime. No clue from where as I did not install anything yesterday. I did leave my computer running overnight though as it was doing some work so no clue if something happened during the time I was sleeping.
I uninstalled the "Network System Driver" from add/remove programs and cleared everything with Malwarebytes and spybot search and destroy and all seems to be good now. I still may do a full system restore to before that was installed.
No clue why it was only affecting this site with the what I assume was a fake bing search bar and also giving the pop ups and even ad text in your replies. Very very odd to say the least and my very first virus/malware in my 13 years on the net.

Just for FYI I am using Ad block, No script and also Flash block on my browser and have been for years.
