I have very good protection against malware. Your replies do not respond to the question, but thank you anyway.

Does "And current stable version is 97" refer to Opera?
And are you suggesting the version I am using is "unstable"?

@jamey4beads Opera doesn't send that kind of message as far as know, so probably it's from an extension, a page or the system.

Maybe it's just an ad?

@jamey4beads Current version of Opera is 97 and you said you are using version 71. Don't know if that's the last one for your system.

Once again, the question asks whether there is some way to stop pop-ups. Your replies are not responsive to the question. Thank you anyway—and I hope someone who understands the question and has an answer will reply.

@jamey4beads They are blocked by default.

You can search for pop-ups in settings and see if there are any exceptions listed.

Thank you. I have already done this before coming here. Please stop replying. I need to hear from someone who has an answer. Not someone who is guessing.

@jamey4beads That's how a forum works, you post about a problem you are having and people reply with possible solutions if there isn't a known definitive one.

When and where exactly do you see that pop-up about someone trying to copy your files?
