Virus infection in this forum?

[DRG]

I have No Coin AND MinerBlock set up in Chrome now and this session was the first I didn't get a malwarebytes warning pop up but be advised Shrapnel is not ignoring this and is in fact making progress sorting out how these are getting in

[DRG]

Logged on again and no pop up warnings....that's twice in a row and a big step forward...

[DRG]

THREE TIMES logging on with no warning pop up......feeling a bit more than cautiously optimistic

[DRG]

DAMN! The warning pop up is back ..but it only happens once now..used to be every time I went to a different subforum.....2 steps forward... one back

Bummer - getting Kaspersky warnings again...

same as before every thread or sub forum

I have seen coinhive come and go today. I bet its inside some advertisement stream.

I do not understand what is going on, however a few observations. I run Chrome on my android and yes, I get redirects to advert web sites. However, when I run Opera on my Android device there are no redirects. The difference between Chrome and Opera is the absence of ad blocking in Chrome.

On my PC I run adblocking in Chrome and I am not redirected to other web sites.

Not being satisfied, I ran Malwarebytes and then followed with Hitman Pro. Hitman Pro found a conduit malware app. Otherwise my PC machines were clean ecxept for cookie trackers and PUPs.

Two ways I can think of getting infected: downloading scenarios and maps from the forum or the adverts.

In the past, I would delete tmp files in my appdata/local/temp folder as a routine practice.

Hmm now my Avast gave not any warnings. I use Mozilla as default(not sure about other Edge/IE... Btw, seems to be no warnings with WinSPWW2 forum. Hopefully both forums are "clean" now?

The forums are clean now. If you are still showing warnings you should clear your cache. Sorry for how long this took. We could not find the infections. But finally got this cleaned up.
