I would suggest you redirect your effort and money toward using a top rated security (antivirus) system. If you're using one and getting viruses, what you're using isn't working. You can't use more than one at a time and each shown in the ratings when used by itself should help you avoid problems. The ratings are from a respected and very trusted source, PC Mag. The top rated choices are shown as EC, Editors' Choice.

These are the not-free ones, moderately priced and considered a notch above the free ones.

There are also free ones, ratings from the same source

The last factor to be mindful of for your internet safety is your own conduct. Don't go to sites you don't know, don't click on links you don't know, don't download unnecessary material. The better security programs will advise you whether a link or a download is safe before you proceed with it.

Many internet service providers (ISPs) offer well regarded security programs to customers for no charge. Check with yours, maybe you have one available to download and use.

Please refer to my response to this post at the Kitchen Table.

The programs that I have used in the past were Norton, Avast, and McAfee. IMO they were all horrible. Caused my computer to be extremely slow, as well as other issues. When I found Malwarebytes, I was very happy with it. Used the free for personal use version for several years. Then when I started being hit with ransomware, decided it was time to start paying for a program I knew was good. Have not regretted it.

What I ended up doing was disconnecting the power from my computer, home network router, and cable internet router for most of the day. I was away from home so did not need the computer. Upon restarting internet router, then home network router, then computer, my problems ended. Malwarebytes ran a scan (3.1.2 version and all is good. I love Malwarebytes.

The problem now is that I keep getting a warning from "Microsoft Technologies" that I have threats that need to be repaired. How in the .... do I get rid of that?

That sounds like a tech support scam, try resetting the browser it occurs in.

Thanks, Zep. I finally got rid of the darned thing. I decided to look intently at my apps to see if anything indicated it was new and found it by another name. Deleted that sucker. And yes, I do believe it was a tech support scam. I have saved the link you added for future reference.
