how do you shut payguard the fuck off?

@rtwillcock​ thank you so much.  Why would a security compa y turn the software into Malware?  Lol

Hi @bbally1754 ,

We understand the frustrations that you felt because of the pop up from Payguard.

The reason why it was popping up whenever you visit any online shopping or financial website is because it was setup as open automatically from the Payguard Configure page.

Thank you @rtwillcock for providing your knowledge in our community on how to configure Payguard.

The real question is why did payguard all the sudden wake up?   I believe this thing was set up to do a malware harrassment by TrendMicro?   Because I did not tell it to do anything it just started doing it?

Hi @bbally1754 ,

Trend Micro wants to ensure that your data when visiting banking or shopping sites are always protected through Pay Guard.

Today this really made me upset.   I clicked on a product in Microsoft Edge and it brought up another browser, probably in pay guard mode.   Okay I get that but what really torqued me off and got me in a loop is when I tried to read the description of this product then it opened a new tab in this same browser and each click opened another page in the same browser, and it just kept opening new tabs even though it was in the web page opened by pay guard really making the browsing experience SUCK.  That is really annoyingly stupid.  Changed setting to prompt me with it wants to do to see if this is any better.   I understand making things secure but make it flow smoothly to the end user.  I wound up with around 25 tabs open before figuring out what was going on.
