  2. New ODD Google Chrome Notifications

    Hi Bill, Shawnloveshorse is right, these are just notifications - a clean install is not necessary! There is a step-by-step tutorial on how to remove these popups from Google Chrome here: How to remove fake McAfee popups in Google Chrome
     
  3. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

    Eliminating McAfee Total Protection

    It's nothing to do with McAfee or MacAfee See: Post a screenshot of the pop up so that we can see if it's a pop up or maybe a web push notification. If the latter see New Microsoft Edge (Microsoft Edge on Chromium) Step 6. https://www.mcafee.com/support/?loca...l=article-view EDIT: Corrected above link https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/ne...-asking-abused EDIT: The link refers to fake Macafee notifications but step 6 is for any site that is currently allowed to send notifications that you want to remove. Your system will scan clean because there's nothing malicious to detect or remove. You've allowed notifications on some website and it's serving up those notifications.
