How in God's name to I stop these continuous pop-ups?  This is as bad as my computer being hacked.  I need another software program to stop this software.  I cant do anything on my computer without having to close up a pop-up.

Any update on this? Mute Mode is only for up to 24 hours so otherwise getting pop ups every few minutes is very disruptive. If we aren't under attack then we don't need to know every time we have been protected.

Hi,
 

Mute Mode temporarily stops non-critical notifications on your device. Unfortunately, it cannot be enabled permanently, as doing so would also disable automatic updates for the program. Mute Mode is designed to silence non-critical notifications for 24 hours, but you can manually re-enable it or set it to activate automatically when you enter a program that requires full-screen mode.

I am confused about why you are posting about the browser and the temporary mute mode. This is a problem with the software application pestering the hell out of users and not allowing them to tailor the experience. YOU (Trend) need to update the software interface to provide users with more control of the kinds of notifications allowed to pop-up. I do not appreciate being reminded of things Trend thinks I might want to do, or things the scan the software completed. I already have two young children who constant need assistance and validation, I do not need software that acts the same way. Stop acting like Norton...
