Pop up messages that my PC is infected

Hi AldenGrove​,

The alert you’re seeing isn’t from Windows or Defender - it’s actually a fake notification from Microsoft Edge. A malicious website (in this case, boob.co.in) was likely allowed to send notifications to your computer, which is why the pop-ups appear even outside your browser. These scam sites mimic real Windows security alerts and try to make you click things like “Delete Viruses” or “Fix Now,” but doing so can lead to phishing pages or malware.

To fix it, open Microsoft Edge and go to edge://settings/content/notifications. There, remove or blockany suspicious sites such as boob.co.in. After that, clear your browsing data and reset Edge to its default settings (edge://settings/reset). Windows Defender never sends virus alerts through your browser or asks you to click a link. It’s a good idea to run a full Windows Defender scan or use Microsoft Safety Scanner just to make sure your system is completely clean.
