Something nasty in my tech preview
I have had a copy of the technical preview since the beginning, using WD and the free Malwarebytes with no problems up till last night. My home page on Edge is Sky.com which has my email and news, and I was looking through the many news items when a "warning " popped up. "PLEASE CONTACT MICROSOFT LIVE TECHNICIANS", and a UK phone number, (020)3805 0592 (toll free). The website was tekharmor.com. The browser was locked, no way to shut it down except shutting down or restarting the pc. After restarting the pc the malware was still there. Another restart later, I ran Malwarebytes and Windows Defender without anything being detected. The tech preview is about to be scrapped and a fresh load put on the pc, I will not be held to ransom by these b*****ds.
