Does this look familiar? If you are like millions of other people, you just click on it......
If you are not into reading all the tech stuff, then the short story is "the user is told that “Your Flash Version is too old. Your browser cannot play this file. Click “OK” to download and install update for Flash Video Player” and the malware is served if he’s tricked into it"
This means that you have inadvertently downloaded some malware that is going to be slowing your computer and giving you constant pop ups. We all know how annoying that they can be, but once infected, it can be a hassle to get rid of it.. I was tricked last week, and then I kept getting pop ups that advised that my computer was infected with a virus, and to go to "this site" to purchase the "fix". I knew that it was a scam, so I searched around and found a free program to remove the malware.. It is called Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. You can download it here... Even if you don't think that your computer is infected, it is a good program to have just in case. It is free, and all it can do is make your computer experiences better...
