baktazjam Posted July 10 ID:1576605 Share Posted July 10 (edited) This web site https://www.y2mate.com/youtube/nAzkQz6TTnE has declared as containing malvertising , can i still use this site or downloading is safe from it? mw has quarantined the malware but the site is still accessible.. what to do? 2- it detected the malware on a website which was shown as quarantined, 1st question is that why it was quarantined , did that malware attacked on my pc? if yes then its allright but if not then why mw quarantined it? and why released it from a quarantined list? plz explain in a simple and detailed way. thx Edited July 10 by AdvancedSetup Disabled hyperlink Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porthos Posted July 10 ID:1576636 Share Posted July 10 (edited) Your screenshots show that some malicious advertisements (Malvertisemts) were blocked by web protection. Web protection blocks do not quarantine anything as there are no actual files placed on the computer, it just keeps you from connecting to them to prevent malicious files from getting on your computer.

It was WEB Block. Nothing gets quarantined on a web block. That is why that screen is empty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

baktazjam Posted July 10 Author ID:1576838 Share Posted July 10 because everyone does not know the term of malvertising ... the info should be clear enough for a common user too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
