    Microsoft Edge Warning


    Just got the suspicious virus alert that indicated I should not shut down and dial into a phone number provided. I simply turned off my computer, then turned it back on and ran my Kaspersky protection. Nothing showed up. Am I OK. Not sure what to do next. Help would be greatly appreciated.
