hating this laptop [View all]

playing around with a "new" laptop and it is now giving me a popup warning of an infection, wants me to "renew" macaffee account. don't have one. how do I handle this annoyance? it is a win 10 and I am still using the edge browser and the effing default bing search too. these popups are doubly annoying due to their noises.

I haven't had an infection on my old win 7 desktop running the built-in protection - whatever it is called with firefox ever.

LOL it was 3 viruses a while ago, now it says 5 and I haven't been anywhere. it started a few minutes ago when I googled oh excuse me, binged a question about sherbet punches (see Cooking and Baking) one of the sites I clicked on seemed to be the trigger.
