Yes, I have had those speaking pop-ups recently too. I don't remember how it started. When I click the X to close it, most of the screen goes black. In order to continue I have to "refresh" the page. Within the last 30 days, I have 444 medium threats removed with virus scan. I now schedule the scan every 6 hours, it used to be 3 days/week. When I first get on the computer in the morning, 0 threat is found, and it just grows as the day goes on
