Remove ads malware from Chrome

A malware smuggled its way into my chrome. It ads ad JS snippet into footer, before tag:

enter image description here

However, what's peculiar is that I found that it only injects itself into one website:

http://www.fabrika.org.rs/coworking/

It doesn't seem that the code originates from the website itself, as the code is not there when I use Microsoft Edge, and I also checked it with an online source viewer tool:

And it came back without the snippet. How do I trace and remove this malware?

Does Iklan Telkom Indihome / Telkom Speedy these words ring any bell ? What extensions are you using ? If this is limited to chrome, its as simple as resetting it or just creating a new chrome profile – pun – 2016-04-27T01:31:37.353

It seems to be related to Indonesia (where I currently am), but if it was ISP injected , it should show up everywhere? Modules haven't installed anything new in a while. Will resetting chrome profile remove all my settings, history, bookmarks, etc ? – srgb – 2016-04-27T01:49:17.850

settings, history, cookies and session will be deleted but bookmarks will be unaffected. Also you can always export your bookmarks. Try creating a new chrome profile for a while and see if this fixes it, if it does, start using it. move your bookmarks there else just undo/delete new profile

The best option would be to reset Chrome. Goto settings > Search "Reset" > Reset.

This will reset the chrome environment
