Today I wanna talk about some security issues on the chrome browser, I noticed today there was a popup window with this chrome-updates.win/s.html ( do not try to open this! ) if you have the same stuff noticed lately, this is some serios stuff which
wants to get you passwords etc. I noticed it when I wanted to go to Bittrex and my login there ended with bittrex.... xyz or so,
be careful !
I found a useful link to get rid of it!
The first what I did, was erasing al my browser Data in Chrome, cookies etc. this helped so far....
And this helped me too: I was using Betternet!
Be safe!
Thanks for the warning. Chrome is a relatively secure browser but the fake ads can be really dangerous!

Any new about issues with Poloniex?

No news, but if you have some Steem in Poloniex and can't get it out, just sell em on the exchanger and send the BTC to Bittrex and but the Steem there again!

Yes i noticed this thing in chrome today as well, but i was unaware that this is related to steemit, i thought that i installed some kind of third party software which installed this malware, although chrome is warning people that this is a phishing site @elyaque

Of course you love the time spent here. You win hundreds of dollars per post. Anyways no improvements it seems. This is sad. I have the notifications on chrome but I am not getting any problem being redirected to alternatives of bittrex. Anyways I will love to see all the users to have at least 2fa installed.

Yes, in my experience the more common certian software is/the bigger corporation stands behind it, the more "spyware/weird information leaks" are incorporated in it. Left me definately with a desire to research a less common browser!

Hi,
My Chrome browser redirects me to
https://chromeupdates.win/s.htmlevery time I open a new tab!But I'm using Ubuntu! What the heck a virus doing on my Ubuntu laptop? How did it got installed without my admin password?
More importantly, how the heck I can remove it as I don't know any virus killer for Ubuntu?
I'll try to delete my cookies and stuff now.
Thanks for raising my awareness! As usually, you are awesome @elyaque!
Update: I was using Touch VPN. Problem solved;)

Wie immer vielen Dank für die Zahlen! Die Blockade auf Poloniex ist nervig. Die Märkte sind stark verzerrt. Wer kauft SBD auf polo, wenn es die Coins auf Blocktrades und bittrex mit fast 20% Rabatt gibt?
Wie viele Coins stecken schon im "Wurmloch"?? Die Leute senden immer noch nach Polo!

Die einzige Moeglichkeit ist die Steem gegen BTC zu verkaufen und dann z.B nach Bittrex zu schicken um neue Steems zu kaufen, das geht ja! Ich bin eh nicht mehr auf Poloniex, scheiss Laden.
