Viruses? (1 Viewer)

[Dunder]

I was just wondering if this website or the game download and mod loader have any risks of viruses? i’ve been playing SDT on my iphone so far but I would like to get to play with the mods supplied from this site, the problem is that I’ve seen this site has pop up ads for chaturbate so i can only assume this will harm my computer.

If you go online at all there is risk. If you download files there is risk. It is not just this website but many websites. website does not always intentionally put virus or malware into it but sometime it slip by securities.

When you download files, check through scanners. Online scanner for better result because if you use single scanner easy for false positive in many application. Also understand that a PuP detection is not same as virus but frequent this will get tag and remove. A PuP is potentially unwanted program. Many will give this ID if they don't know what the program is.

So for accessing the website i should just cross my fingers?

If we really were out to get you with malware, we'd hardly admit it. If you're worried about it, either don't download or run it through a decent anti-virus suite.

Moderators here do not check uploads here for viruses unless a member reports a problem with a specific file. On those few times when a member reports a suspected virus, moderators will download and scan for viruses. It USUALLY turns out to be a 'false positive'.
Having said that, I agree with what Faceless said: test downloads using a decent anti-virus.

So what about the undertow website itself? i seem to get a pop up every time i access it. what’s the best way to prevent this?

ould you recommend a good pop up blocker? I’m less worried about the downloads and more worried with the pop ups i get from the website whenever i access it. thanks for the advice.

D Dunder ,
Pop up ads pay for the site. I'm sending you a private message.
