Peculiar, and spammy

I only use free anti virus and security stuff. Windows Defender and such.
Lately, like just this last week I have been getting pop up ads in my lower right screen.
Both " Norton" and" McAfee" are saying my subscription is expired and it is time to pay up, etc.
Not a chance.
If I had had them both they would have been fighting with one another.
That is also not all the messages and pop ups I am getting.
I guess some people like spam.

Do you fry it first or just eat it straight out of the can?

I will not choose either one. I think this is a trick.

I have such problem too. I am waiting to have a young person around who can take care of that. I gave up.

@GardenGerty It seems we are always coming across someone trying to spam.

Yes spam is rampant.
When I had Windows I just used the Defender that is all..not paying for stuff.

Right. Some of it comes with a trial installed on your computer, but I always remove it as it can interfere with things.

You know, they say “follow the money.” I can’t help but wonder if anti-spam software is being helped by anti-spam software employees writing spam programs to make anti-spam software necessary......

That is quite the conundrum. It is possible.

Canned spam would be greasy in your inbox. I am not wild about either one either.
