    Why wasn't supposed Trojan spyware reported by my antivirus?


    I have Windows Defender and McAfee on my Windows 11 computer. While looking for a deep cycle battery charger manual in Microsoft Edge, I received a message that my computer was infected and access to the PC had been blocked for security reasons, and I should call Windows Support @ 1-202-933-5646 toll free to have Microsoft engineers walk me through the removal process of the Trojan spyware.

    Anti virus, Trojan's and Spyware.

    Hmmm, I use AVG Email Server Antivirus, Zonealarm Pro, and many many spyware programs... The best one being BPS Anti-Spyware. Ad-aware SE is just garbage now, but if you want spyware protection with out nothing running i suggest using Spyware Blaster. Heres a list of great programs that i use and i think are some are the best. Pest Patrol, Spyware Doctor, Spybot, Bazooka, Spyware Blaster, and BPS Anti-Spyware. Those are really great anti-spyware programs. Oh and the new Zonealarm Pro I dont like at all becuase it alerts you about everything even if you turn alerts off so i use version 6.0.667.000 which is one of the best newer ones.
