Okay firstly, I know what this thing does. I’m only asking about the popup that says that I have viruses. How do I get out of it? Because If I press yes or cancel, it just downloads it what do I do?

Hi Beanie,
I have the same problem. I’m about to take my computer to best buy and let them check it out.
If I were you I would not do anything. Let a professional check it out. It shouldn’t cause that much. If you find out anything let me know. I’ll do the same.
