Somehow I got my Chromebook browser completely locked up saying I had a
 virus and to contact xxxx to get rid of it. However since it said it was a
 Windows 11 virus I wasn't too worried. But I was surprised that it was able
 to lock up the Chromebook completely so that I had to reboot it to recover.
 Perhaps Chrome stuff is not really as safe as advertised...
