This site gives me antivirus pop-ups.

I haven't been on recently, but logged in today and noticed I am receiving pop-ups on the bottom left of the website that read "its recommended to enable antivirus protection". I don't get this pop-up anywhere else. Should I just ignore these pop-ups or is antivirus needed for this site?

Knowing I already have McFee enabled, and I keep getting it about "McFee", I suggest ignoring it.

Idk about the lord and mods would say so, don't Fully trust my opinion.

Thanks for the input. I'll see what a mod/somebody who 100% knows has to say as well.

For your safety I would recommend a browser add-on like no-script/adblocker to prevent active scripts. Anti-maleware software is a must have.

I use Adblocker and Popup Blocker Ultimate also no coin sometime in the past site were making me mine for them.

^That's exciting. If you are willing to put more effort into settings, you could also use uMatrix. But that's something I wouldn't recommend to people who has no big experience in safety.

If it annoys me i will remove it (popup, ads,Coin mine) So maybe they are looking maybe they'r not i'm not afraid of this. also downloading(and running) Malwarebytes should remove any virus/malware. i do that from time to time its free after all.
