| Have you been browsing the web and a pop up window appears telling you malicious software was detected or that your PC has been infected? The pop up window may be a warning asking you to download and install an anti-virus program. If you recognize that this message is not from your own anti-virus software, it may be an attempt to download malicious software onto your PC.Often this type of pop up window will download and install malicious programs onto your computer, no matter where you click on the window. It will even install if you click “Ignore” or the red “x”.
If a pop up window similar to this appears on your screen, avoid any installation of malicious programs by using the Control Key and the F4 key |
