Popup storm that warns of multiple viruses, MacAfee license fails and ads for it (phony of course), completely locks the browser from being used except for the ability to click on any of the popups. Trying to inspect by right click will bring up a related message to the popups so that's covered to. I eventually saw Comisopoa on one of the popups, looked it up in another browser, shut down the original browser (Edge) and eventually was able to get in the settings and block all notifications, which seemed to hide all trace of the problem. But some of what I've been able to research has said that if you have Comisopoa.co.in listed as a website that was previously allowed notifications, then there has been stuff installed on windows 10, so I'm probably going to reformat. Although scans show the entire system as clean. The attached jpg has some of the popups that I saw yesterday and comes from a site that recommends another product to clean it. ESET Smart Security was installed as soon as I could get it on there after the last Windows install and the browser integration is on all browsers.

Is this just a browser notification mess spam phony MacAfee and shutting down notifications shuts it down? I have a newb user in another room in the house and it's a pain to spend hours reviewing partial information on that system only to find that ESET doesn't have any mention of it at all, anywhere. Anyone else seen this? If I need to add screenshots, then you don't know what I'm talking about. But I'm probably going to format the system just to be safe. Just frustrating to see something that looks like malware, pay for a bunch of users for smart security and it's oblivious even with the browser protection.
