Suspicious website

This website solidcaptcha.lm.r.appspot.com.  (not sure whether it is im in big cap or small cap as it Lm) always pops up on the manage notifications whenever I am using the Microsoft Edge browser.  How do you get rid of this 'pest'?  Please help and thank you.

    1.Open the Microsoft Edge browser on your computer.
    2. Click on the menu button (three horizontal dots) in the top-right corner of the browser window.
    3. From the menu, select "Settings."
    4. In the Settings menu, scroll down and click on "Site permissions" under the "Privacy, search, and services" section.
    5. On the Site permissions page, click on "Notifications."
    6. Look for the entry for solidcaptcha.lm.r.appspot.com in the list of websites and click on it.
    7. Click on the "Remove" button to delete the permission for solidcaptcha.lm.r.appspot.com to show notifications.
    8. Close the Settings tab, and the changes should take effect immediately.

    As someone who works for an MSP, a lot of our clients see these notifications and suggest their computer is infected with malware, although it usually fixes itself with the above instructions.
