    Default YNC Redirected to Malware Site

    When I came to the site today, before I had a chance to view anything, my browser was redirected to http://www1.simple-suiten.byinter.ne...KistCS7KPZ3NWS, a malware site that will infect the hell out of your computer.

    Be careful!!!

    I use firefox for YNC. Internet Explorer is too open, and it doesn't happen every time. I'd say on average, I get a redirect about once a month. I visit daily, so the odds aren't bad, but I wanted people to be aware that it is an issue. I won't stop coming, and I've actually written to Firefox and YNC to let them know when the site has been shutdown as a "Known malware site" to get it fixed.

    For me, it is a means of confronting both evil and mortality, to see for myself things that will hopefully forever remain outside of my life. As a creative type, I need to understand these situations for future reference. No pleasure is gained from these viewings, only a better knowledge of humanity

    I paid attention to a previous post and installed ABP into firefox. I haven't had any problems since.
