You are right Matchett.
There is what is circulating as a fake-virus. Makes it look like you have been messesd up. Of course the object is to click on the “ repair all” link.

I am on a yahoo tech support group and read about it fortunately before it hit me last week. I ran my Avast and Malwarbytes ( which I love!) and found no viruses as I figured.

Thanks for the verification! I had a message like that (not the same one) pop up on my PC a year or so ago. I didn’t click on any of the links in the notice, but instead copied and pasted a big part of it into Google. Sure enough, there were a lot of other people looking for help and were being advised that it was a scam at worst and a money-making marketing ploy at best.
