Follow Up on the previous message. I found out how to get the information.
It was in Windows Defender. Now, my question has changed. How do I
quarantine a virus in Defender? Thanks.

Using Jaws 2018 and Windows 10 on a dell laptop, has anyone ever gotten a
message from “Microsoft” stating something about a virus? The voice on the
message was feminine, and British. And it gave a toll free number to call, or
it will disable my laptop. It said something about

Hi, Dennis. If there has been a Jaws update, the check for updates feature

I have experienced that as well. I don't normally go to the website thus
why I asked if I missed something.

I am pretty sure it is coming from Defender. When I open it up, I find the
following message:
Trojan: win 32/dittertag.b severe 2/1/2018
and I can arrow to the right of the message and find a restore button, and a
remove button.

I don't know with defender. It appears that you have a virus. If you really
not comfortable removing it your self I suggest calling the Microsoft
accessibility line. I am sure they can help and insure your machine is clean.
Unfortunately I don't have their number at hand but I am sure others
Laura:
I just got off the phone with them, and it was, indeed, a virus. They talked
me through the steps for removal, and all I had to do was press enter on the
remove button. Simple enough! Thanks to all of you for your

I remember "seeing" something about that. However, since this was found on

defender, there is a quarantined trojan and the following message is
displayed:

Yes, these are most often a fishing message. You call the number and they
pretend to be Microsoft support. They get you to let them into your machine,
then lock it down and charge you a fee to fix it.
It is a scam.

We have best Buy Geek Squad insurance plans, so I took this issue to them, and
they say this is a total hoax and a way that companies are trying to get into
your PC. We have paid for GeekSquad insurance, for several years, and have had
top-notch phone support for any issue, plus in-home
I would get a second opinion on that.

It was released on January 4th 2018.
