what's up with this?
« on: August 14, 2014, 05:42:27 PM »
This is showing up with increasing frequency on conservativecave, no other site.

Do I download, or not?

I would not do it.  I recently got a popup and a page opening saying that I needed to upgrade my video player. I wasn't even watching any videos at the time.

Also, almost all legitimate software on your computer has their own built in update service and won't do it through a pop up notice.

NO!  Don't download that shit.

One of the guys at work had a similar thing show up on his computer -- he was trying to update Java.  It ended up putting some sort of trojan on his computer that multiplied every time it was scanned by our antivirus.  I was able to find the infected file and delete it.
