Re: Is this Maleware or a scam ?
Original Message I just booted up and the following thing was on my SM Browser page. Came up w/o any prompt. When things appear w/o bidding, i am very skeptical about it being a scam or Maleware trying to get on my system if I click on anything. http://www.cys-audiovideodownloader.com/ Is this authentic ? I would like to get a program or extension or add-on that will extract (capture) ANY video on any web sitelike on News web pages or blogs etc. Is there such a thingthat is safe to download? DoctorBill It's a scam. I got it too and malwarebytes does not get rid of it. The way I finally got rid of it was to blacklist the URL using the BlockSite extension. Here is the URL for it https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/blocksite/?src=ss Since it is not compatible with SeaMonkey you will have to run it through the online SeaMonkey extension converter first: http://addonconverter.fotokraina.com/ When the extension comes across a URL it's blacklisted it displays a quick unobrusive temporary popup. This should work (it did for me) but there is the separate problem in that the developer of this extension has seen fit to resort to the same trick. So I BlockListed the Blocklist URL! ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

In attempting to block the BlockSite URL the address doesn't get pasted in a it appears in the URL bar. Instead it reads chrome:. I believe this issue came up in this newsgroup awhile back and someone, perhaps yourself, posted (to me) essentially what you've just said.

I don't think there is an external file deposited on your computer (JMO - I'm no expert). If it did do that, I would expect M'bytes or Avast to pick it up, which they don't. It does seem to have a way of identifying my computer though, as it periodically will try (unsuccessfully) to add its page in a new tab and shift focus to it at the next mouse action. The extension, though seriously problematic, does work. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Dumb question maybe but why is harmful software readily available on AoM.org? Too nuch effort required to monitor it? At the very least there could be a separate page, perhaps password protected, where ordinary users could post extensions behaving as malware.
