Getting a message from systemtechnotify.com

JoeP111 Said:

"Getting a message from systemtechnotify.com: I started getting a message when using Safari from systemtechnotify.com that they detected 5 viruses. Never heard of systemtechnotify.com and the message shows apple in a couple of places but really doesn't identify it has coming from Apple. I haven't selected the select button to "take care" of the viruses. Just wondering if anyone else has seen a similar message?"
