    Hi! I have the ByteFence Anti-Malware program and am being pestered by annoying pop-ups, especially when paying a game. I want to disable the pop-ups and not have them interfere with my other work and games. How do I do this?

    ByteFence is a know browser hijacker and PUP that is usually bundled within other applications! Did you install it intentionally, or did it come with something else that you ran with?
    Although its a legit antivirus program, its manufacturers marketing techniques leave a lot to be desired.

    I would uninstall the AV and replace it with a reputable program, many of which you can get for free right here at MG's.

    I thank you for your response. Now, how do I uninstall it? I have a Win10/64 laptop.
