Stop encouraging ads that are hiding pirate attacks.
Everytime I am on Yahoo (and only Yahoo), my Norton IS intercept malicious attack. Here's the latest one while I was browsing Yahoo:
Category: Intrusion Prevention

2015/04/12 10:06:59,High,An intrusion attempt by adrotator.se was blocked.,Blocked,No Action Required,Web Attack: Malicious File Download 24,No Action Required,No Action Required,"adrotator.se (5.150.195.167, 80)",adrotator.se/?redirect&placement=400984&cookie=1&random=0.16304179411570763&domain=82d914.se,"ALIENWARE14 (192.168.2.139, 54170)",5.150.195.167 (5.150.195.167),"TCP, www-http"
Network traffic from <b>adrotator.se/?redirect&placement=400984&cookie=1&random=0.16304179411570763&domain=82d914.se</b> matches the signature of a known attack. The attack was resulted from \DEVICE\HARDDISKVOLUME7\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\MOZILLA FIREFOX\FIREFOX.EXE. To stop being notified for this type of traffic, in the <b>Actions</b> panel, click <b>Stop Notifying Me</b>.
You already lost a lot of credibility displaying too much ads, if these ads contains hacking attack, it's even worse. It's no wonder Yahoo! has been blocked at my workplace
, but not Google or Bing.
