Weird problems with Adblock Plus
Posted: Thu Oct 20, 2016 6:28 am
I am using for Adblock plus for last 2 years, but I haven't faced any issues in the past. I am a freelance developer, who develops add related to financial institutions. My computer has accessed by my 2 kids, wife and a cousin. I have specifically told all the people to not install anything which appear as anything(my kids watch cartoons). But they install some exes (yourlink and some others, which are weird viruses). I am not able to un-install and I can't install new windows(due to some reason). Also, I have want to know about the core of the problem. My chrome is badly affected too (on which I have installed the adblock-plus).
The relation with Adblock plus and this situation:
Whenever I share a link on chrome(using any messenger) it is converting it into an exe download. First it all start with just 1 website and right now happening with everyone. First it was occurring with few internal pages of some websites but right now, even the main page + internal pages are also effected.
Weird thing, I have noted that if I try to uninstall Adblock extension, everything calms(I am not blaming adblock is trying to install any malware or stuff, I am using Ablock plus for last 2 year and it is the only reliable adblocker on the internet). Also, I also want to use AB+ extension (as I don't trust any other service).
Example:
In the start, it started with a client website like militarybases. It's internal page http://militarybases.co/directory/fort- ... -devens-ma (and few others) were converting into a virus.
Hope you guys provide some solutions here!!!
I am sure that there is nothing wrong the adblock+ extension, but may be changing some settings here and there will result in solving the issue.
