Went to google, did a search for Lowes.......... it was at the top of the list. I clicked on the link and a window opened, in that window was a box to enter user name and password. Under that it said call Microsoft for help. The was also an audio clip playing saying my computer was hacked call MS for tech help. I couldn't close the password window, tab or browser.
So I went to task manager and closed it that way. Opened FF browser again and this thing pops up again with the audio.
I closed out of it again only this time shut the computer off. Waited a few minutes and turned it back on.
No issues. Ran a full system virus scan..... came up clean. Opened the browser again and no issues, everything normal.
I went into the history and right under the google search for Lowes was "ERRORX50897789.
Did a search on that, came up with a few sites but no issues there either, the sites were said to be safe. Any ideas what this was????
