Sounds like you have some ransomeware on your laptop that’s creating the popup. If you can get to http://live.sunbeltsoftware.com/ you can use Vipre PC Rescue to clean it up. It’s free and it works really well. You may need to log on in Safe Mode with Networking to do that.
Reboot your computer in Safe Mode:
-As soon as your computer turns on hit the F8 key repeatedly until a menu comes up…
-Choose "Start computer in Safe Mode with Networking"
-Log in as Administrator if possible, otherwise just use your normal account.
-Download and install the tools from the links below.
-Run MalwareBytes AntiMalware first, then the other one. (Say yes when asked to update)
