Malware False Positive Attack

[Hyperion]

The normies that come here and end up going full exceptional individual is what we should be grateful for, otherwise it's just boring.

Thats a good point what was I thinking?

 

[lindsayfan]

there is no malware on the site, there never has been, and there never will be

It's like you hate money

Is there a free AV that isn't total crap? AVG is a model of bloat, and Avast has been headed down that road for a while now.

Is Avira any good? It looks sleek, and I remember liking their bootdisk AV, but that's a whole different use case from always on protection.

Is autism a virus

Yes, and we're a primary vector.

 

[tehpope]

I use linux. What are viruses?

Things people on Windows get when they install "Windows Activators" because free software is but a rumor to them

Kengle takes this "bitcoin mining = malware" thing very seriously.

He should take necking himself more seriously.

Null can we just get a "Neck Yourself" list going?

The thing you get that fucks up your PC when you're searching for tranny midget rape on some weird russian site that contains broken english.

Stop writing a virus and try mining some real coin for a change you lazy pedo.

Microsoft security essentials was merged into the default windows defender in windows 10 and it's actually pretty good on it's own. With that, Superantispyware, and a decent ad blocker there's really not a need for a commercial antivirus anymore unless you're incredibly retarded.

I routinely poke around in the filthy corners of the net, and there's no way in hell I'm trusting my AV updates to Windows Update.

90% of malware is distributed through ads/clickjackers. Download adblocker ultimate and noscript and you should be fine unless you regularly download cp from sketchy eastern European sites or something.

I use Avira free on my Windows pcs and have done for some years. No complaints here. Just remember to opt out of their silly "add ons".

I have just switched to uBlock Origins after Adblock started letting things through (seems to be an issue with "legacy" add ons and Firefox) and I'm not getting notifications from it whatsoever. Am I doing it wrong?

Here, I'll put an offer out. If anyone has a programming job at $40/hr, let me know, and I'll take it. I've gotten offers at $100k/yr that were rescinded because of the site (and more specifically, something else). As I've said before, if it comes down to working menial labor and keeping the site up, or changing my name and closing the site to go work a standard 40 hour a week gig, I'm doing the latter. I'm not going to stack boxes so you can shitpost. If that bothers you, please leave. No one will miss you.

Not CP, no, but plenty of cracked software off of incredibly seedy sites. Now that I think about it, they usually are eastern european. Anyway, the point is I like reliable daily updates, and Windows Update is the least reliable part of Windows, in my experience.

Adblocking is a whole other thing. uBlock seems to be unanimously regarded as the best, but I have no experience using it on Firefox.

I think I'm gonna give Avira a try. If they're not jumping on the hysteria train over coin miners, they just became the default best. I never imagined that I'd be making this choice based on which service isn't being suckered into a political agenda.

Actually I know a guy who does freelance work with website building, and makes a decent amount of money.

You could try that and use a different name other than the one you use online. Although changing your name is still there.

 

[Mrs Paul]

I go with at least two adblockers (anyone who doesn't use one is a fucking moron)
McAfee Anti-Virus
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
AdwCleaner

A little excessive? Maybe, but I ain't taking any fucking chances, after my last computer got screwed by some nasty malware. (This one does need to have the fan cleaned, though. I have to take it in when I get the chance)

I can't do both. If I'm running the site, I have to keep papers and contracts current with my legal name. If the site continues to grow, people will know what I look like. Eventually, there will be cross contamination and the whole effort will be worthless. I think Sam even says he routinely checks court records around where he thinks I live so he can find name changes (lol). It's basically a lost cause.

Even with freelance, there's a huge time conflict going on between the site and work. I'm also taking classes full time so it's not really something I can deal with responsibly until after December.

Well shit son. Guess the only retarded idea left is to dress up as a fat british man and start burning qurans.
