i ran Malwearebytes free scan and it came up with over 100 files of pup.optional.consumer.input threats and it deleted them all for me. 20 minutes later I scanned again and it came up with a few more files of this malware stuff.

It keeps coming back on my pc (windows 8.1). Is there any way to block this from getting onto my computer?? thx for ur help.

Sometimes it helps prevent recurring things by deleting Temporary Internet Files and cleaning out the Temp Folder, I use CCleaner for that.
