I am plagued with MSN Dot Com loading up every time i switch on my computer and reading up on it all i see is a lot of talk about:

Do you have Mozilla or firefox.

I do not know what they are?

All i know is that i have windows 10, and Google Chrome and that i have Edge but do not use edge i use Google Chrome.

I cannot find anyway of switching this page off every time i put my computer on.

It loads with MSN dot Com and asks "Do i want to accept cookies" Which i don't.

How do i stop this from loading every time i switch on my computer?

This is what loads up

Hi Don.

The message has disappeared again altogether.

I think i misunderstood it.

It was not "

"To protect your online ID"It was "You must sign in again"

Sorry for disappearing. If the message comes back, let me know.

I will uninstall AVG.

Changing my password did not work with Windows Live Mail.

I fixed the Microsoft account, by typing in my pin number after it said it needs fixing last night.

After doing so it said "all accounts are working correctly"

I go to bed, wake up, put my computer on log into windows live mail and as usual it says "To protect your online ID" Message.

It all began after i updated my Microsoft account to include a mobile number.

I waited 30 days for it to be updated and this is where it all began.

The phone i have is not android, it is windows 10, i am confused as to what is going on here?

  1. This isn't related to the phone.

Was AVG uninstalled yesterday?

    Can you switch MSN off so that when i put my computer on, all i get is the usual desktop.

    I do not want the internet to load on it at start up whether it is MSN or anything else.

    It does it especially if i switch everything off at night, go to bed, put the computer on in the day!

    Is MSN opening in Chrome?

    Did you check the Startup page like I advised?

    See if msn is your Startup page/Homepage.

    Chrome > 3 dots > Settings > On startup...

       * If you've selected Continue where you left off, MSN might be the

          last page you were on before shutting down

       * If you select Open a specific page, choose a page other than msn
