Check your notifications and see if they show there. I had this happen to me the other week and I found they were in my notifications and kept popping up. I did a, Clear all, and that ended them.

Generally, these advertisements are notifications originating from your browser. Alternatively, they could be notifications from McAfee itself.
First, open Edge > Copy the URL
edge://settings/privacy/sitePermissions/allPermissions/notificationsand paste it into the Edge address bar > Press Enter > Under "Allowed," check which sites have permission to send notifications.- Remove any unknown sites or sites from which you do not wish to receive notifications—including McAfee, if it appears in the list.
In Chrome, you will do the same thing, but the URL you will paste into the address bar is
chrome://settings/content/notifications.I look forward to your feedback!
