My imac is only about 2 months old - hasn't got much installed, but I do have Avast Mac Security installed
Out of the blue, while I was typing an email (in Thunderbird) up comes a small popup that said
"Hotspot Authorization Needed
You are connected to a hotspot which probably requires an authorization before it allows you to access the Internet. After you authorize yourself to the hotspot, try to connect again."
We have a network here at home, and it's a secure network requiring a password to get in. I wasn't using a hotspot anywhere.
What do you think this popup means?
I've googled the wording and there's nothing with that precise wording.
Can anybody tell me what it might be?
Thanks
