Annoying Mac stuff.
9 years ago
General
Been getting a lot of fake alerts to upgrade my Flash Player. Fell for one, and it downloaded some weird Mac space maintenance programs, and weird file checking apps. From ADOBE. And from the App Store. Fair warning, it's a load of crap. I'm contacting apple tech support tomorrow to see what the hell is causing that in particular, if I had a piece of malware or code stuck on this machine making those pop up, or if it's just random crap on the net. So be careful. hell, even the first link when you google adobe flash was a malware program dump site...*shakes her head* The years of mac immunity to this crap seem over.

So far these two are two of these annoying pop-ups and self-downloaders I've had to deal with. I could use some help as to how to block this stuff on my machine. As well, I keep getting re-directed to various app sites whenever I am using Furaffinity. Including those two.
and I just got redirected to Alibaba of all things, when I created and updated this journal not ten seconds ago.
It gets worse. I can't get anything done on Furaffinity because these stupid redirection pages fuck up my browser and lag FA's connection to me to shit and back. And even clicking them OFF doesn't help. I have to reload and start back at square one. FA better get their shit together and get rid of this annoying code.

OP
All I know is that FUraffinity is getting really annoying with these fucking redirect pages and now a stupid popup shoppytool bar on the right side o the screen. Apparently it's adware someone dumped onto various sites. Either it's part of the advertising sites now need to do or what, i don't know, but it's seriously fuckijg annoying, and impairing my use of this site.
