When I boot my computer in the morning I get all kinds of virus warnings, note my McAfee has expired (I never had it) and click here to subscribe and clean my computer. I run Webroot and it doesn’t find a thing. Do I just ignore the McAfee warnings? Is it just trying to scare me? (it has) I thought I was protected. Do I ignore it or subscribe. Isn’t that what Webroot is supposed to protect me against.
Thanks
Darryl

Hello
First thing you need to uninstall anything related to McAfee as it’s very hard to uninstall all of it. Also when do you get the Pop-Ups only when the Browser is open or anytime?

The best thing to do is contact Webroot support via the Ticket system as they can check a simple scan log and if they find anything they will help you remove it free of charge because you have a paid subscription. https://www.webrootanywhere.com/servicewelcome.asp
If it’s in the Browser only then look for a good Ad Blocker and there are many free ones from the Browsers web stores.
