Virus Alert when log onto Microsoft Edge.

When logging onto Microsoft edge a virus alert appears with a voice warning and instructions. It cannot be deleted or bypassed. There is no such occurrence when I log onto Google Chrome or internet explorer.
I currently have AVG Free coverage and have updated frequently, including today.

Howard,

Thank you for providing the screenshot. We received it.

It seems to be a browser hijacker. Please refer this article to reset the Edge browser http://www.thewindowsclub.com/reset-microsoft-edge-browser-to-default-settings-in-windows-10 and restart your computer to check the status.
