With the weekly windows 10 updates, I've had to have my OS reinstalled TWICE due to compatibility issues. Now, $200 geek squad dollars later, I've eliminated that mess but I get this pop-up scam, when I take the computer out of sleep mode, that has a window that won't close and audio of some limey twunt telling me that my computer's been infected by a virus from a malicious porn site and that I need to call the number on the screen because all of my personal info including Passwords for banking, social media sites, credit cards, etc... etc... have been compromised.

Most asshats would shit themselves hearing this blaring from their computer speakers, as the very official looking screen blinks an 1-888 number and implores you to call it to work with their "windows professionals" to eliminate this infection.

If this happens to you, do the following:

Hold Control, alt, delete simultaneously.

Choose "task manager" from the resulting menu, and close your browser.

It disappears. I'm not sure if it'll happen again, but for Christ's sake... DON'T call the number and play ball with these mongrel terrorists. The only infection your computer has is some fucker slipped in that pop up in the form of a familiar email with a link you (and I) mistakenly clicked.

Go to "remove program" in your control panel and look for one of these. Delete it, problem solved. THANKS FOR YOUR USELESS SECURITY UPDATES WINDOWS 10!!!!!!

$200 got him:

-Random strangers looking at his computer and searching for pedophilia and porn files.
My favorite thing about the Joe post is removing that from task manager does nothing but remove the alerts the spyware is already there doing damage. I can't imagine how slow his PC is.
