Author Topic: Unidentified plugin. (Read 3737 times)

There appears to be a plugin in my google chrome that whenever I open a website run by google it redirects me to this link: http://cdn2.links.io/pluginupdate.exe (WARNING: this link will try to get you to download something...) Whenever I get it it's called "plugin_update.exe" but the download says it may be malicious software. I have yet to find out which plugin is doing this, and that's why I've contacted you guys. Here's the website that the download is coming from: http://cdn2.links.io/ Help me please. I REALLY want to use youtube again.

It might not be "just a plugin".

If you have the extension "Privacy safeguard" or something of the sorts you should delete it, It worked for me.

Ran it sandboxed, dropped that into the temp folder, malware most likely.
