I get infrequent and irregular (3-4 times while working on my PC for multiple hours) warnings from Avast and Malwarebytes while having my browsers (primary an up-to-date Opera) open. The URL’s vary but it’s always about “HTML:RedirMe-inf [Trj]” and “URL:Blacklist”.
I have already installed and run Malwarebytes but it doesn’t find anything except when I ran it the first time (see last block in the Malwarebytes attachment).
I was not able to pin the cause. I don’t have the same sites open when it happens and it also occurred once when opening Chrome.
I attached the FRST readings.
Damn, I thought wearing a hoody and balaklava would be enough to stop detection. Now you have me.
In all seriousness though, I have only used it on common sites to stop annoying trackers and the like or to get an unfiltered view. Shouldn’t have gotten anything via Tor.
I was joking around about Tor. I wasn’t trying to insinuate you were doing anything bad. I have a dark sense of humour, so my apologies. (Tone doesn’t translate very well over text either.)
