    Stopping daily pop-up promotion by McAfee

    Literally every day since I began using this new laptop, a pop-up ad trying to get me to subscribe to McAfee has appeared when I switch on. I don't want ever to subscribe to McAfee, so I've tried to get rid of it but to no avail.
    I've tried tackling it directly, by clicking on the "accept risk" option in the pop-up itself, and indirectly, by altering the notifications management system to stop apps from sending me notifications - but nothing stops it.
    Is there any way to stop this happening? It's driving me mad!
