Remove Google Analytics Popup Malware

This sounds like a malware issue. Check out the help article below for some tips on troubleshooting this issue.
There’s a Windows file just called ‘hosts’ (no extension) that you can use to utterly block access to any domain. It’s located in :
C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Open it up with Notepad. You’ll see something that begins like this:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a ‘#’ symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
Immediately after that last line, add this:
127.0.0.1 google-analytics.com
127.0.0.1 search.googleanalytics.com
127.0.0.1 results.google-analytics.com
127.0.0.1 pagead2.google.com
127.0.0.1 www.google-analytics.com
127.0.0.1 www.search.googleanalytics.com
127.0.0.1 www.results.google-analytics.com
127.0.0.1 www.pagead2.google.com
It WILL block any pop-ups from google-analytics.com
I got the pop-ups too, but after I did that, they’re GONE!
This Fix “results.google-analytics.com” and “search.google-analytics.com”
You can add more address that you get pop-ups in the HOSTS
just type
127.0.0.1 (Leave some spaces) address pop-up that you wanna block.
This is the only method known to block these popups, if you know other methods, please share.
