Getting endless notification
Im getting this endless notification
Feature:
Online Threat Prevention
chrome.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to getexperiment.ru. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since websites must renew their certificates with a certification authority to stay current, and outdated security certificates represent a risk.
Is someone trying to hack me? I have BD + Malware Bytes + VPN am I safe or will this eventually get through?

Hi @PhilE
Did you try the 1st part of this post by Alexandru as was previously submitted by Gjoksi79_? In this case, for your Chrome browser.
"If you do not visit the website and you still receive these notifications, then your browser connects to it either through allowed notifications or toolbars/extensions. I suggest that you clear the cache & cookies, remove any unused/unknown extensions and if the issues persist, reset your browser. You can find these steps here:"

Bombarded with frequent notification in the past few days:
"chrome.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to wpad"
What does this mean? Is it a threat, or something benign? Is it significant that chrome triggers this, but Firefox does not?
Any advice would be very much appreciated!
