So, I was reading a thread this morning and suddenly, BAM, up came this McAfee (malware?) screen. I could exit the screen easy enough, but you should check this out to see if is, indeed, a malware infection. Here's a screen shot.

No, it's likely a bad ad. They slip through from time to time, but the network does a pretty good job of nuking them in short order. Do you actually have McAfee on your computer?

Heck no. I haven't had McAfee on any of my computers for well over 15 years. I have had any further occurrences.

I got that as well today on my PC on Chrome.
Just hit the back button and I was good to go. Hasn't happen in a while. Never had McAfee on the PC.

I been getting the same issue mostly on my iPad. Had it once on my iPhone. But that was a good bit ago. Next time I’m on the iPad I’ll get the links. Most of the time it redirects me to mcafee.com.
