It is important to recognize the sign of a malicious intervention and kill it off before it goes out of hand. 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up will look like a security notification on your screen, and it will try to make you think that your computer is going through severe security issues. However, you should pay no heed to that. Please scroll down to the bottom of this description for the instructions on how to restore your browser settings to default.

There might be no appropriate way to remove 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up from your computer because the program that generates this pop-up might not be on your system in the first place. Such pop-ups appear on your screen when you browse the web for various reasons. Let us go through the list of potential causes, and then you will be able to apply all the necessary security measures to make sure that you do not encounter such pop-ups in the future. It goes without saying that prevention measures are just as important as actually dealing with an intruder.

First, the 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up might have been generated a third-party application that you accidentally installed on your computer. Users tend to install programs like that frequently, but they seldom understand the danger of having lots of freeware apps on-board. The problem with freeware installation is that third-party installers tend to bundle several programs together, and you may not be aware of that. Perhaps you will miss the fact that the app you want comes over with some application that eventually generates lots of annoying pop-ups. That could also lead to certain computer security issues, so freeware should not be taken lightly.

Another potential reason you see 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up is that you might have opened a website that generates this pop-up, too. For instance, file-sharing pages and other websites that thrive on third-party advertising might open a redirect window that eventually loads the pop-up the moment you click somewhere on the page. It could be that such pages launch various pop-ups automatically because that is how they make a living. And when the random pop-ups appear, it is already up to you to deal with them.

The original website for this pop-up used to be based at savetosupport.online. However, at the time of writing, this page does not work anymore, so it is hard to determine the origins of 'Windows Firewall Blocked the Internet Due To Security Breach' Pop-Up. On the other hand, despite the fact that we do not know much about this intruder, we surely know what it wants from us. Just like most of the fake alerts, this pop-up was designed to look like a genuine notification from an official software provider, so it is not a surprise that this is what the pop-up says:
