WorstGen site is sending a virus to my PC?

[Adam 🍎]

Every time I long into WB recently my Kasperky Antivirus detects a malware trying to download itself on my pc. I checked the report and saw that it originates from WG

i by accident deleted first Screenshot that says file name is something NOT A VIRUS

likewise @Jaguark101 @Jailer @BangOO🍅 noticed ads on WG too that pop out, well ads from what i got were about gambling and sex cams. So maybe that's the issue idk

Porn and gambling sites with embedded malware. Not a bad deal, worstgen.

@Bogard @Pantheos @TheAncientCenturion any explanations as to whats going on with these ads?

 

[Buggy D Clown]

Yeah past couple days it's been doing it. Every time I click on WG logo(home) it keeps opening new tabs with ads(?)

 

[Bisoromi Bear]

Only happened once to me, a new tab opened but it was blocked by the anti tracking addon

What is this bs🙄🙄

 

[OniKagura]

Chrome / Chromium based browsers are introducing new policies regarding extensions, which is making some of them ( including AdBlockers ofc ) to be less effective, so you have to wait that the current AdBlocker u using catches up with these new policies or look / wait untill someone comes up with a better solution :)

What about not placing any ads at all?
Are you telling us we're supposed to expose ourselves to malware until the ad blocker gets an update?

 

[Adam 🍎]

Edge is a Chromium browser :)

Huh the more you know

 

[Jailer]

Some of these ads are pretty fucked up too

 

[U c 4 up da idly]

Considering worstgen now has pornographic ads does that mean users are allowed to post porn now

You should just stop the ads. Seriously, they are not suitable for minors and there are more than just a few members here who are under 18.

Here is the screenshot of what I got :
