When I went to log into my email it would not let me without confirming my profile information by hitting the "Submit" button. I tried to find a way around this but was not able to. The information had my name, an erroneous zip code of 99999, and my phone number. Since the info was minimal I went ahead and hit submit. It said a confirmation would be sent to my phone, but I did not receive anything. I then logged into my email, but as I was logging in it said, "logging out" and then logged me in. I opened a new tab to research if the ATT profile confirmation was legit or a scam. I was unable confirm either. However, when I opened the new tab I noticed the Tiger favicon between two ATT favicons on my recent history. I attempted to confirm whether this Tiger favicon was part of ATT or Yahoo but could not find out anything it. I am concerned someone may have hacked my email and phone. Can anyone confirm whether this Tiger favicon is legit or who it belongs to?? (photo attached)

I was looking for information (search engine Duck Duck-Go) about plants and suddenly I got a massage which says my iphone is hacked. I was not able to acrivate any button, besides the ok button, which I did not trigger of course. I tried to find info (pc) about the address but I shows a black screen. Than I removed firefox and re-installed it. Now the massage is gone. I have no idea where this massage comes from and if it will install malware if I would have used the ok button. It might happen again and it would be nice to know what to do Thanks in advance….

I have several pop up ads stating viruses and trojan horses have been found. These are all trojan horses that they want to infect my system with. They are coming from Mozilla Firefox and I have no idea how to delete the pop up ads from my screen and computer. I do know they are false as I have McAfee and Malwarebytes and they both show that I do not have any viruses. I know if I ask them to fix this they will infect my computer. I need to know how to delete them thanks

I installed a "messenger app" and it was obviously malicious... I uninstalled everything I could find, but I still am having my address bar hijacked, every time I enter something, it redirects me to "tracksearching.com" I've installed and ran Malewarebytes, Avast, AVG, and Windows Scanner, nothing picks it up or changes anything. I need help! Obviously something is still manipulating my key entry.
