[QUOTE="simmerskool, post: 1056551, member: 61091"] I have a question about win Notification (app) just to right of systray clock. Seems like spyware & how do you turn it off. Context: I had been logged in to MT on a VM_guest running thru a vpn. I guess push was enabled when I logged in to MT. I later logged out of MT on VM, I left Edge open on VM and was using Chrome on VM and the [U][B]on the HOST[/B][/U] win10 I got a popup Notification that someone had replied to a MT thread I was watching. o_O Huh?? I wondering HOW did this happen o_O On the Host Edge was not running. On the VM I was logged out of MT. The Host & Guest had different ip addresses. I thought my VM Guest was basically isolated from Host, but I was getting Notifications on Host after I had logged out of MT on VM! o_O Seems like something in win10 system is "spying" on my me. What is it and can it be turned off, if so, how? :unsure::unsure: Or is this the new normal -- no expectations of privacy anywhere... (no malware detected on either my Host or VM Guest) Sidenote: when I "played" some with Notification icon on Host, it gave me an option to disable Notifications from malwaretips.com, which I did, but how was the Host even detecting that I was logged into MT on the VM_Guest. I hope I explained clearly enough because I find this Notification app more than intrusive. [/QUOTE]
