Laptop broken? Loud squeak, Firefox does not open in weeks?

Okay, I'm just a bit shocked, but there's something wrong with my computer. Firefox can't be opened anymore (it does not work until today, maybe someone knows a solution) and then I'm on the internet quite normal (read boredom messages in MSN) and then suddenly a page opens with something " Your computer is damaged "or so says. I could not read it carefully because I turned off my computer as fast as possible. He made a horrible squeaking sound, like when he beeps in his ear, but with a much higher sequence. And now it starts every time I turn it on😑 does anyone know that the laptop is now lost forever?

Well, there must probably ran the expert. With a little luck, it's just the hard drive or a fan, and that does not go into the money

So that sounds like the site sounds like advertising or a virus.

I can't do more with the squeaking.

Just run a virus scanner on the computer and tell me what he finds.

The message "Your computer is damaged" was a "fun message". They want to rip you off. Do not you have a clever antivirus program? Windowsdefender alone is not enough for a long time.

The squeak could also have come from the speaker.

Is he still driving up?

So now that I've got a headache, I've been able to set the speaker to zero and somehow the sound from Internet Explorer has closed and now it works. AntiVirus has also found no viruses, so first everything seems to be good again

Alright! Incidentally, instead of Internet Explorer, I would recommend Google Chrome, because it is a lot safer than the IE.

Drive up. I closed it myself to stop the squeaking. It was really something with the page on the internet, so I could turn off the sound and close the page. AntiVirus does not detect anything.

Yes, that only opened one page automatically and then I used it to continue browsing. Otherwise, I also use Firefox, but that is no longer somehow and in a new installation, all data go away, right?

No, you can choose when uninstalling whether you want to delete your user data or not. Alternatively, you can simply run the setup and reinstall from there. It's like this
