I didn’t click anything on the site, like I said it was just a bunch of garbage characters, and the .exe started as soon as I got there. Actually, I got there through a re-direct from some other ad popup.

And when I checked through Virustotal and online scan, each of them only came back with 5 or 6 out of 30 saying it was a malware site, so I guess it’s not 100% conclusive amongst the scanners.

But the fact that the page was only garbage characters tells me something. The site name itself is also suspicious.

Anyway, I’m still wondering, is there any way to stop any .exe or script from running, once you get the deepscan popup? Is there a way to shut down everything?

Thanks.
