I am plagued with MSN Dot Com loading up every time i switch on my computer and reading up on it all i see is a lot of talk about:

Do you have Mozilla or firefox.

I do not know what they are?

All i know is that i have windows 10, and Google Chrome and that i have Edge but do not use edge i use Google Chrome.

I cannot find anyway of switching this page off every time i put my computer on.

It loads with MSN dot Com and asks "Do i want to accept cookies" Which i don't.

How do i stop this from loading every time i switch on my computer?

This is what loads up

Hi Don.

The message has disappeared again altogether.

I think i misunderstood it.

It was not "

"To protect your online ID"It was "You must sign in again"

Sorry for disappearing. If the message comes back, let me know.

I will uninstall AVG.

Changing my password did not work with Windows Live Mail.

I fixed the Microsoft account, by typing in my pin number after it said it needs fixing last night.

After doing so it said "all accounts are working correctly"

I go to bed, wake up, put my computer on log into windows live mail and as usual it says "To protect your online ID" Message.

It all began after i updated my Microsoft account to include a mobile number.

I waited 30 days for it to be updated and this is where it all began.

The phone i have is not android, it is windows 10, i am confused as to what is going on here?

  1. This isn't related to the phone.

Was AVG uninstalled yesterday?

    Hi Don.

    In settings i found that "uncheck Launch the CCleaner app window each time the computer starts" was already unchecked.

    In settings i found that Smart Cleaning was ticked so i unchecked it.

    I restarted it and checked Task Manager. C Cleaner was listed so i right clicked to end the task.

    I checked having restarted it and both Launch the CCleaner and Smart Cleaning are unchecked.

    They both remained unchecked.

    I will see what happens in the few days ahead.

    I hope it works and would be grateful.

    If i deleted my Microsoft account i do not know if that would be easy to restore 

    I used their feedback form, was a bit upset, my language was not very good, but i had had enough of it.

    I don't understand the feedback form too well, i do not think they are real people, it looks more like a bot type search engine

    Every day i fix this Microsoft account, it tells me it is working, the next day it is not as happened today as soon as i read my emails.
    I do not know why it tells me all accounts are working correctly and the next day it is not?
    I could not find a setting in C Cleaner. Cannot find the option Monitoring (To uncheck it from settings) 

    -   -   -

    OK. Settings have changed in the newest version of CCleaner.

    Options > Settings > uncheck Launch the CCleaner app window each time the computer starts.

    Options > Smart Cleaning > uncheck Enable smart cleaning.

    Options > Scheduling > disable this. You do not want CCleaner running automatically.

    After changing those settings, on the next startup, check Task Manager > Startup to verify that CCleaner is not loading at startup.

    Hi Don.

    I switch my desktop computer off at the mains before going to bed.

    I was told the MSN Page could be because of the Router looking to connect.

    Is this true?

    I am still getting the problem with the email all the time.

    Do i just delete my entire microsoft account and start from scratch, because pressing fix does not cure it?
