I formerly had McAfee protection on my HP computer. The subscription expired and I do not want to renew it. However, every time I turn on my computer Mozilla Firefox alerts keep popping up and I haven't been able to permanently delete them. Please help! Would you please correct this issue, or explain (in detail, please; I'm not a tech savvy person) how to do so? Thank you.

What do the alerts say? Can you post a screenshot?

The website redirects to a numbered website and a window pops up stating that a virus scan has started. I close the window and restart firefox and later it happens again. A windows virus scan does not reveal a threat.

Check you add-ons for a McAfee-related one.

Thanks for this suggestion. I cannot find any. It is very annoying and I have looked everywhere for some redirect or add-on file.
