'Windows Firewall Blocked The Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up Removal Guide

'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up must have appeared on your screen because you either opened a website that supports such pop-ups or you have an extension on your browser that generates them. As you can probably tell from the information on the pop-up, it tries to make you think that you are experiencing some security problems. However, this notification is a scam devised to push you into spending your money for nothing. You need to remove 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up from your system at once and then check if you have more unfamiliar applications installed.

There are many fake alerts out there that look like the real notifications from the Microsoft Corporation. Or at least they try to look like it because then their message becomes more believable. Users have to understand that a reputable corporation would not require them to call some phone number. It would contact users in some other way. The problem is that this 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up could seemingly appear out of nowhere and scare users into thinking that their computer is really at risk. So it works more on the emotional rather than logical level.

As mentioned, you may encounter 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up because of various reasons. Our research team says that the pop-up may come as a redirect, too. For instance, you might enter some website that displays a lot of pop-ups. Usually, those are file-sharing websites and other pages that survive on third-party content promotion. Normally, when you click anywhere on such sites, they automatically open at least two pop-up windows, and one of them might as well display this fake alert. The message on the pop-up will say the following:

Windows Firewall Blocked The Internet Due To Security Breach
Please Do Not Shut Down Or Restart Your Computer.
Call Microsoft +1-888- Get Instant Help On Security Issues. Call On Our Toll Free Number.
Instant Help Without Waiting
Call +1-888- (Toll Free) and Improve Your Computer’s Health

Needless to say, you should never call the given number because the people at the end will only ask you to give away either your personal information or your credit card numbers. Such scams can be really successful at luring money out of the unsuspecting and scare users. So you should never be one of them.

To get rid of the 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up, you need to close it at once, and then check whether you have unfamiliar extensions added to your browser. It would be for the best to reset your browser’s settings to default. Also, please stay away from websites that may display a lot of pop-up windows because clicking any of them accidentally could lead you to certain security risks.

Finally, scan your computer with the SpyHunter free scanner to check if you have more unwanted programs on-board. Such random pop-ups could be associated with freeware applications, and they tend to slither into users’ computers unawares.
