Timardo Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Recently I got an issue while I was trying to download a file redirected by adfocus and got a message from ESET Antivirus claiming that this website (http://adfoc.us/x1 for example) contains potentially malicious content, concretely 'JS/Adware.Subprop.U' without an option to continue despite this message. I have used AdFoc.us shortened URLs for years now and never had any problem. I know this is caused by ESET thinking something malicious is going out there but I'm contacting you first to let you know that this happens. I haven't found any info about this issue on the internet yet, so I'm not sure if you are aware of it. Luckily the site I was downloading files from has an option for direct link, but this is not very common case thus a lot of people may be forced to pause ESET Antivirus or add AdFoc.us on a whitelist just to get through this message.

Admin Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Can you show a screenshot? Also knowing your country/browser and the link you were visiting would be extremely helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timardo Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 Looks like this problem has been fixed, I am not experiencing it anymore with links that have been problematic before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
