Lou - Virus in WR code

[Seattle_Cat]

I use the Chrome browser and every time I use it on this website I get a popup trying to get me to install virus on my PC. It claims to be a critical update to Chrome. It's really an attempt to hack into your PC.

Reads like you picked up some Malware.

If you haven't already, perhaps try this:

I only get the popup when I visit this website. Yes, I know that it is known malware and I suspect that it is embedded in the code for the WR website.

Impossible. Rivals is Yahoo! owned - their attention and focus on incorruptible security is well documented. (note: sarcasm meter set to 11 out of 10).

Hope your issue gets resolved, Seattle.

According to Virus Total this site is clean.

It's not a problem as long as I don't allow the popup to install the virus. It is annoying, though. I guess I just won't use Chrome to visit WR anymore. This website could be harboring other viruses, though.

Opera works well here.

I use Chrome to visit WR all the time (I am using it now). Absolutely no issues.
