No Matter what I do the fake McAfee has expired message keeps popping up, I have tried all the answers I could find on google and still there it is. I do not use McAfee I use Malwarebytes Premium so I do not know why this keeps happening.

Hi Michael

I recommend that you clear your browsing history in Firefox (this article will help) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/delete-browsing-search-download-history-firefox

Once done, I suggest that your run a full Malwarebytes scan (just to be sure there is nothing malicious happening that needs to be stopped).
