I will miss our old instance but I'm glad that we have a fall back now! Long live the king!

I got some malware yesterday, here are the sites I visited as a warning in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

indeed. I use both. I happen to have brave AND firefox on my laptop, as I've been making the transition to firefox the last few months. I'm entirely on firefox on my desktop, but I mainly use brave on my laptop. I used it to stream the aforementioned things on Saturday

so the way it worked was that it would only open the popup when the browser was opened and it would open it in a separate window. I could close it out but upon restarting the browser the popup would come back up.

After this I performed a scan with windows defender, which found and quarantined two things it labeled as trojans, and then with malware bytes, which found a couple of other bits of malware that I can't remember how it was labeled. Seems like it's all cleaned up now

it wasn't actually netflix, it's literally a site like Fmovies but with the name susflix??

movie and tv streaming and sports. I wonder if it wasn't one of the sports sites as it was a sports betting pop up, but the susflix was the only site that seemed to have anything bad according to the virustotal site.

probably but it was on the FMHY wiki with a star, so idk. Kinda weird that one of the best and most trusted pirated resources would have a malware site listed as one of the best options

I presently have both uBlockorigin and Brave's native adblockers at work, so not sure how it slipped through there. Definitely gonna look at the userscript manager though

as it were, I wouldn't have, but it was in the FMHY wiki as a starred site, so I figured it was trusted

Windows defender showed it as being a trojan- it appeared as a popup with a sports betting page popup anytime I opened my browser. I quarantined it and took care of it and did a few different scans with windows defender and malware bytes, all of which came back negative after the initial scan.

The sites I visited were:

sportssurge (v2)

steameast (v2)

freesports

susflix

themoviearchive

I went through and scanned all of these websites with virustotal this morning, and it came back with a detection on susflix for phishing. Susflix was listed as a goated site in the FMHY wiki, so maybe I should reach out and let them know about it just in case?

I assume this is the site that installed it as I have used every site other than that on both PC's and have had no problems whatsoever on my other one. Either that, or one of the links that was given by sportsurge had a virus in the stream or otherwise somewhere else in the link- either way, I didn't download anything so I got it straight from the browser.

Just thought I'd let y'all know to keep your guard up! Happy sailing!

edit: As much as I appreciate a good bit of sarcasm, I was indeed using uBlock origin as well as Brave's built in browser adblocker. Both are always turned on. Never had any sort of issues before now and I never download anything from non recommended sites or click on anything sketchy on the page (which nothing sketchy usually pops up with the adblockers running). Maybe some pages with streaming can still infect you with something even if you have adblock?And yes, I realize susflix is a weird sounding name for a site, but it seemed pretty nice and was listed as one of the few options to stream movies in 4k on the FMHY wiki. It was also a favorite according to the FMHY guide, so I figured it was safe. Guess I won't trust as much from that site anymore

Anybody use this site for custom cursors before? Is it safe? http://www.rw-designer.com/cursor-set/wii-cursor-by-stefano-tinaglia

that's rather surprising. Maybe it's just dependant on location, but here, everybody calls lefties commies and right wingers nazis. That is, if they are being disagreeable to whichever side they are talking about. Most of the time they don't just label everyone with a different opinion than them as extremists

Spotifymate- anybody know how to download a whole playlist without having to download each song individually? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I've been using either Spotifymate or doubledouble to automatically plug in spotify playlists and have all the tunes downloaded.

Doubledouble tends to have issues with regionlocking and will freeze a good bit of the way through processing certain playlists, so I've found it less than reliable.

Spotifymate is way more reliable, but when you plug in the link to the playlist, you have to download each song individually. This is not a problem with small playlists, but when you come across larger playlists it makes it a very tedious task. I may just be stupid, but I don't seem to see a way to download the whole playlist with one click.

Anybody know if its possible or should I look for other solutions? I should also add that I would be more than happy to use some sort of software that automatically makes spotify playlists into youtube playlists so that I can download them from youtube directly with jdownloader if that is an option, I just didn't see that anywhere.

Thanks in advance!

Anybody know what's going on with the FMHY instance? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

Hey guys, made an account here. I had originally setup an account on the FMHY instance but its been down for the past half a day or so. Anybody know what's going on? Were they hacked or something? Or are they just doing some sort of server maintenance?

Either way, I'm happy to be here with fellow pirates and looking forward to continuing sailing the seven seas with you lot. ARRGH
