are sure you would never use Wikipedia to find the site full of information from
various fields. But if you use the site Wikipedia a few days back and found
there was a bar advertising on the web page, your computer may be infected with
certain types of malware. Through his official blog today Wikipedia wrote that
they did not insert ads on the pages of the article belongs to them, and
therefore open the lines of the Wikipedia periodic donations to the reader in
order to fund the site. They say if you (users) find the presence of
advertising on our articles page, your computer could be infected with malware.
Wikipedia
mentions some of the browser extension may be the main mastermind behind this
problem. Simple party recommends the user to perform extension checks if the
browser and remove suspicious. They also recommend to disable the add-in to
find out which sources are showing these ads, though they recognize that doing
