    Default PC virus/malware?

    Hi

    I am using a 2014 Lenovo Thinkcentre runnung Windows 10. Since earlier today i have been receiving multiple notifications (window at RHS of screen) purporting to be from McAfee warning of a virus threat. I don't have McAfee on the PC and Windows security and Avast One are not finding any problems. Any ideas?
    regards

    Looks like an old cd burner was infected. Notifications disabled. Now looks OK.
