It pops up on top of a page you are reading, and looks like an actual warning from Microsoft. If you click out of it, a second warning comes up which adds a time factor after which your computer will be compromised.
I can't vouch for this, as to whether there is any validity, but i doubt it. The page suggests you download an anti virus program, so I'm pretty sure there's nothing to it.
Would like to hear from anyone who knows about this.
I ran malwarebytes the first time, and came up with nothing but "pup" nuisance, so I ignore it now, and just click out.
Has been about a week since I received the first warning, and nothing has happened to my computer.
