I keep getting notifications, supposedly from Mozilla and/or Microsoft on lower right of my screen, telling me the system is infected. How do i determine if these messages are valid, or a scam ? Turned computer off and back on--messages keep popping up.

Hello,

Firefox does NOT send such kind of messages. Do they show up when Firefox is closed?

Also, could you please post a screenshot of those messages? What do they prompt you to do / where do they lead you?

Hey patzanddennis,

Try blocking Web Push notifications in Firefox for suspicious websites. Also, if you need further help, please [support.mozilla.org/questions/new/firefox/form ask a new question] (and make sure to read the answer above!).
