1. iTunes for $ 189. I think u have a virus. They want your credit card, one way or another.
2. Sync: same suspicion.

3. Malwarebytes free version is sort of recommended. But things can go wrong.

3a. if I feel uncomfortable, proceed to step 4. Now if u had a Mac, I would be able to advise in detail. But you don't. And for the sake of privacy and your computer integrity, I will omit additional diagnosing suggestions. (things like REGISTRY can be damaged, and then we are in deeper water.)

4. So, contact your local computer technician.

4a. Tell them to make sure your data is backed up. A simple USB chip may suffice. I use a pair of 1 Terabyte USB drives.

4b. Tell them to install Malwarebytes and to instruct you in writing on what to use AND not to use.
