      1. I have adware scanner in place & running.
      2. This only happens when I have Opera running in the background, it is not my default browser & I mostly have not started it - I only start it when I expect to use it, afterwards I sometimes leave it running in the background and that is when this happens.
        After the popup appears as soon as I remove it, Opera opens up & a new tab opens with the porn site.
        Clearly, if it is not related to Opera, it would open in the default browser, Firefox.

          The only extension I have on Opera is Roboform, and it is clean.

            @wolnumber1 It happens even if you don't load any page in Opera?

              Yes. The only thing open on Opera is Bookmarks.

                      OK, Thank you. It is now clean. I presume that means the problem has probably been removed.

                        @wolnumber1 The idea is to check if the issue still happens with a clean profile.
