Cleaning up a customer's PC, I made the mistake of leaving a tab open on Yahoo's home page. Only 1 minute later: malvertized. Sunuva...
I did it again to pin down the cause, & indeed it's Yahoo's ads breaking out, taking over the page, & loading scary messages that make it difficult to leave.
I can't stress enough, folks, that an ad blocker is Internet SECURITY software.
@arielmt I used to joke around about that years ago when ad blockers became vogue but I had no idea how true it would be. I would argue it's even more effective than antivirus when it comes to casually browsing the internet.
