wvhba6470p.com warnings #18

I've been sitting on this issue since I started testing your app. So this isn't something that just suddenly started happened with the latest changes.

While the app runs and the output shows 'loading', I get warnings from MalwareBytes about malvertising. Its always the same domain too (wvhba6470p.com). I don't know if anything can be done about it. I assume this happens when you are parsing the links or something like that. 2020-09-18_9-39-44

I don't think it has anything to do with the script. It is related to your security settings on windows. There is a possibility adding support for extensions particularly an adblocker may solve it. I will think about it.

Okay. In the meantime, I put in an entry in my HOSTS file to redirect any attempt at this domain back to my localhost (so it fails). No more popups from Malwarebytes :)
