BEWARE : had a number of reports of the Microsoft tech support scam today.
If anyone contacts you claiming to be from Microsoft saying that you have a virus it is a scam and should be reported to Action Fraud on this link https://reporting.actionfraud.police.uk/reporting-form
Do not give these crooks access to your devices. If you have or know someone that has encourage them to get in touch with action fraud or the police.

MICROSOFT WILL NEVER CALL YOU (they don't know your number)

If you use 7zip take note. A vulnerability has been found that can allow an attacker to take control of your machine. The issue is fixed so just download the new version and stay secure

The flaw affects all previous versions of the software.

Windows 10, Love it, hate it, Either way it's soon going to force itself on you.
The solution to this is just to disable the Windows 10 'nag' icon - which you do by removing Windows Update KB3035583

Goto Windows Update, find "Installed Updates" (bottom left of app in W7), find KB3035583 and remove it.

You'll probably need to restart and the icon will be gone - you MAY need to force a Windows Update check and if KB3035583 reappears, right-click it and "Hide this Update" and it's gone forever (well, until they force it through another way)

Pro tip - Always make sure you choose the "custom" option when installing software otherwise you may end up with stuff you don't really want.

When your Antivirus / Internet Security subscription has expired, You don't have any Antivirus/Internet security.
You really really should either
1) Renew your subscription
2) Remove it and install another

Leaving it and complaining about the constant pop up reminders usually only results in a system riddled with malware.
Remember, Malware can steal personal details, Account information it can even post to your facebook without your knowledge or allow a hacker to view your we**am.
