Both computers are functioning normally after the hard shutdown and restart. My wife did get the popup twice, but after clearing the chase, hasn't had any other issues. we've done multiple scans with both malwarebytes and AVG with no returns for infections. Windows Defender is turned off and a couple of people have told me to leave it off with AVG active, so I haven't tried it. If two antiviris scanners come up clean, I'm apt to pay attention to them. I just wanted to make sure that I didn't need to do anything else.
On a sidenote that perhaps you could help with, Farmville won't run on chrome, firefox and barely functions in edge. We thought that it may be flshplayer, but as best a we can tell it's active in all 3 browsers. Any ideas why it won't load in two browsers and only runs extremely slowly/marginally on a third?
