So I click on a rifle ad here, look at a couple pics, there's a pic of Trump I click on, all of a sudden my screen starts blinking, there's a message to call Microsoft right away. I know I've been had, I try right away to shut my machine off, won't let me. Right away I unhook the internet & unplug the machine, $80 later from my computer buddy, good to go.

Just a reminder beware>

Just got my computer back running, it didn't flag me on the rifle pics, it got me when I clicked the pic of Trump, had no idea I should report it, thought I would heads up this way. Do you want me to post which ad here?
