Is this popup from norton

Ive occasionally seen this popup. I have all the password products turned off.

Using Firefox (current).

Since the popup is so generic I am trying to find ownership.

You're welcome. I would run MBAM anyway, if it finds nothing its a good thing. It plays well with Norton products and doesn't tamper with things that could break the operating system.

I do not see any other popup.  I may only get when I use linked in.  They have several login pages.  I found one (welcome back login) where it occurs every time.  I submitted a question to them and will see what comes from that.  Holding on malwarebytes for now. 

 

Strongly beginning to think is a linkedin issue.

Thank you for all your help.

John is there another popup window behind the one shown? It appears there may indeed be. Have you cleared your FF cache and ran Malwarebytes to be sure you don't have malware that Norton doesn't focus on? Just following up.

I've asked moderator to delete pdf.

I seem to get it from linkedin login.  They have several versions of the login page.

Hi @JohnOzuk,

I hope you're safe and doing well. @SoulAsylum might be able to help if he can see the error message. So please take a screenshot of your PDF and upload to your post.

Thanks,

I did open the pdf cautiously after scanning. It is indeed "generic" and would be difficult to determine the source. Because it is browser related, I am almost positive it comes from a possible browser highjack attempt that failed. Clear your FF browser cache and cookies and restart the computer. If you get the same results download and run Malwarebytes. Run a full system scan using the free version not the trial so that you can continue using it later as a scanner when needed. Let us know if things change for the better.

Cheers

Hello John. Posting a screenshot: https://community.norton.com/en/comment/8292611#comment-8292611. Most won't open a pdf file due to security risks they can present. Please repost the screenshot using the above method for us to review. Thanks.

Cheers
