Does anyone know a good place to download LaTex for windows?

Thanks. The download has a pop-up asking me to agree to something entirely in Russian (i think) - any way to avoid that?

The great big "Download" button on the left is actually a really evil banner advertisement. It has nothing to do with MikTeX. Avoid it.

I avoided that one, but caught by another less sinister looking one. Now i have some irritating pop-up everytime i go one an online forum.

 

The second didn't work either unfortunately.

Run this to get rid of it. It doesn't install permanently. Click Scan, then Clean and then reboot.
