Hello,

I forgot what website it was but it gave me a popup about my computer being blocked on the website. I panicked and clicked the "leave now" option on the pop-up since it wouldn't let me click the actual X on the tab and it closed the browser for me. I'm really nervous that it might have installed something on my computer. I ran Windows Defender Offline at least two times and it didn't say there was anything wrong with my PC. I have also run the Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool.

Are there any extra steps I can take? Nothing seems unusual so far but I'm just really anxious. I've already checked the programs installed on my computer and I can't see anything out of the ordinary. Am I okay?
