DON'T PANIC IF YOUR COMPUTER FREEZES AND YOU GET AN INFECTION NOTICE...

Don't Panic if your computer freezes and you get a pop-up warning telling you your computer is infected and you need to call the number on your screen

• DO NOT CLICK ANY BUTTON ON THE SCREEN!
• DO NOT CALL THE NUMBER!
• SIMPLY HOLD THE POWER BUTTON ON YOUR COMPUTER AND POWER OFF (OR PULL THE PLUG!)

When you start your computer again, everything will be fine.

This is caused by a scam, with the scammer using a glitch in website software. It puts your computer in a continuous loop, and 'freezes' it because it's using all of the available processing capability.  There is no simple way to break out of this other than to force the computer to power off.

NEVER CALL A NUMBER THAT POPS UP ON YOUR SCREEN. NO LEGITIMATE COMPANY WILL EVER DO THAT.

IF ANYTHING STRANGE EVER HAPPENS ON YOUR COMPUTER, POWER DOWN AND THEN RESTART. In all likelihood, you will have cleared the problem.
