Is the forum infected? (1 Viewer)

[45Kevin]

Hey Woody,

I've been getting this message from my virus protection while using the forum.
Specifically the 45 Clubhouse.

MSEdge is my browser, but I would expect MS to have their certificates in order.

Try a different browser, I have never seen that

The URL that Bitdefender doesn't like is affiliate-cdn.raptive.com
It is a site owned by CMI Marketing.

@woody do you use CMI?

Yes.

Guessing the issue raises when you are NOT logged in.

I am logged in.

I think Bitdefender doesn't like the certificate but gives me the option to accept it as is..
But it sound like the URL is legit so I'll accept it.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Step 1
Use uBlock Origin on ALL of your browsers.
This is the ONLY ad blocker that doesn't let fkrs pay to let their ads through.
And if you see some s*** about it no longer being "supported" on Chrome, that's just Goggle lying to you and trying to make you remove it.

It looks like it was trying to load an ad that came from an affiliate link.

Step 2
Please for the love of god close all those tabs.

Thanks for the tip, but because I have been a member for so long Woody doesn't plague me with ads.
It is obvious that somewhere in the backend the adware is present and my Bitdefender software can see it.

I have told Bitdefender to exempt the adware so this is no longer a problem for me.
