@1lor,
Can you also please share a screenshot of the exact message that MWB is throwing when you see it?

@1lor this would have nothing to do with BAT or anything. It most likely is some malware you have on your device, especially if you have any extensions.

Just a FYI, whenever you have any issues it’s usually good to provide some details like what you were doing when the message appeared and, if possible, grab a screenshot of the message. The reason for both is they help to pinpoint the origin of your issue.
