Author Topic: I'm actually kind of scared.  (Read 1458 times)

I think I may have gotten a virus, I was downloading thee memeCats emotion faces. Then I get redirected to a link that says "Congratulation! You have won an iphone! Press any button tu confirm" And I got redirected AGAIN to one of those giveaway sites. I honestly don't know what I did, did I accidentally click something? I honestly don't know. But I'm scared.

I already have ADWcleaner installed, should I just search though my computer to see if I have anything dowloaded I didn't download myself?

You should consider getting an ad blocker if you are unable to avoid clicking on ads.

I use chrome, and I don't trust them anyway, I've had bad times with them, I think I'll just hit up ADW real quick,

Oh, forget. I just got the same thing. Didn't download anything. Just visited the link posted.

Do NOT open the link in the linked thread. Something is very wrong with mediafire. Copy you should consider removing the link to that thread.

It wouldn't even surprise me, Mediafire is usually cluttered with a billion ads.

Macs are not invincible, scrub.
There's just not a lot of viruses designed for infecting them.
