One PC on our network is getting spam hits detected by armor

I am on the Armor trial. My son turned his computer on and I was inundated with alerts...two specific sites over and over again - 80 notifications thus far and counting even after turning off armor for a few days. What do I do? Does this mean he has something on his computer already?

Hi @MomDim40,

 

Most likely nothing to worry about. A lot of times when you visit the website for video streaming and or Utorrent website users may encounter a lot of pop-ups some may direct you to malicious link/website which will trigger an alert on the Armor app itself. My suggestion would be to Bitdefender Total Security software installed and do/have your son do a full scan of his system to see if there is a more serious issue.

 

Do you have a sample of the message that you have been seeing so we can better advise you on this situation?
