As it hasn't happened on this video, I would like to ask other Snotr's if you are having any trouble with MALWARE via Snotr?

I've had three occasions recently (one yesterday) when immediately upon clicking on a snotr video I have had a so called microsoft audio warning telling me that my computer has been infected and if I try and switch it off they will be forced to lock my computer!!

I don't know how these things are supposed to work but I did switch my computer off and it wasn't locked. I also pay for an anti virus program and I can't understand why it didnt pick it up? But this has happened to me a number of times nearly always when I'm on Snotr? Any idea???

#1 I had this happen too, but only when I click on snotr via my cell phone. It said the same thing, that I was infected with a virus and within minutes could lose lose all my pictures and contacts. Needless to say the first time it happened I panicked and downloaded an antivirus app. My son later said that it was a scam and took the app off my phone again. After that it happened many more times, but to fix it I have to go into settings and clear Safari history, and then it's fine again.

#1. I get these kind of messages occasionaly, though not on snotr yet as it happens, so I doubt whether it's linked directly to snotr. Do you run an adblocker? You might find that will cut down the number of these kind of problems. I run anti virus, though it's not a paid one (I'm far too tight for that) I use Avast, and it seems to catch most bad stuff.

Incidentally Jake, you don't need to turn your PC off to get rid of these things. Type Ctrl + Alt + Delete and then select 'Start Task Manager'. Click on the 'Applications' tab and you'll see various applications running, Select the one you want to stop, it'll be running in a browser window such as Firefox or Chrome, and then click the 'End Task' button. After a few seconds the offending little bugger will go away.

Hahaha! "Rapid, unscheduled disassembly"!

Come on, lets just say it like it is, Elon Musk is just a big fan of fireworks and loves to watch shit blow up

#1 Happens all the time on Safari. Get redirected to some random page that won't let you close it. Not so much with other browsers.

#1 Probably some very intrusive ad messing around. "You've been infected by x virus click here to remove"(usually with blinking lights and max volume sound, never fall for crap like that. That's not saying that ads can't infect you, they sure can if they run some vulnerability in the browser/java or whatever and you haven't updated your computer in a while.

#2#3#6#7 Thanks for the info especially Foxy very helpful.
I am a man of peace and profanities but I'd really like to get hold of anyone who has produced one of these annoying malware or virus's and really give them a jolly good kicking between the legs until I was exhausted and they mended their ways. They should ousted and there should be a roundup.

#8 Haha...love your colorful description of acting out in violence

As to the video, I don't know why there were so many failed attempts, it's not exactly rocket science.

#10 Funny!
