About once an hour I get a popup saying that Avast has blocked cdn.translations.savematic.com as a URL:Malvertising. I have scanned my PC with Avast and Malwarebytes. No infections found. I only have 4 tabs open in Chrome Youtube, Yahoo Mail,MSNBC and facebook. Any ideas on how to get rid of this ? Is it possible one of these pages has the infection ? Any help would be greatly appreciated cuz this is getting VERY annoying
Presumably you aren’t actually trying to connect to that site ?
If not start by clearing your browser cache and cookies,including 3rd party cookies and restart your browser.
If that resolves it you should be good to go but I would advise tightening your browser cookie and security settings.
If it doesn’t have you recently added an new browser extension/add-on:
If so try disabling that add-on - and or disabling all add-ons, restart and try again.
Thanks for the input. Clearing my browser cache seems to have done the trick. thanks
You’re welcome.
Given it is in your browser cache you might want to consider some add-ons that block some data that would otherwise be saved in cache.
Whilst I use Firefox as my default browser, I use uBlock origin and uMatrix add-ons, I don’t know if you use any add-ons like these or if these are available in Chrome.
I also have my security settings that prevent cross-site cookies, fingerprinters, etc. again I don’t know if these settings are available in Chrome.
