I have downloaded a PDF book from a site after which every now and then this virus alert pops up as shown in the Image.

How to get rid of it? Please suggest any Antivirus which disinfect the virus and does not delete infected file/folder and its installation steps. I have recently subscribed to (22.04) Ubuntu-Pro.

I do not want any of my folder/file gets deleted while Antivirus scanning. (For example Avast on Windows deletes files/folder.)

I read about some of the linux Antiviruses but since I do not want to take "Risk" about it. Hence I posted here to seek help.

I tried using ClamAV but still no use.

For experts you can reproduce this issue by downloading PDFs from http://libgen.rs/search.php

Initially I thought of this Virus Popups as if they are some system related viruses which entered into my system as they also appeared when I am on my Desktop or browsing folders . After trying ClamAV which did not able to remove this virus popup, I checked this YouTube video by Geek Stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0XvO1uPJrc&t=214s .

You can disable/remove/block this popups under chorme -> Settings -> Serch for Notifications -> Not allowed to send notification as shown in the Image.
