What operating system are you running? We updated to win10 and last week we had the same experience with alarm bells going off. It happened to us using firefox trying to open a web site.

Hi Bob Certainly curiousthe only way anyone's gonna know what's up with the pc is if you turn it on again, and try to have a sighted person read what's on the screen. Hopefully, that won't happen again. Let us know if you find out what it's doing. I'm guessing it's ok since you posted to the list, but still...very strange indeed.
