Virus on 1 website
Hey, so i get a torjan notification on a website i visited for the past 2 years without any torjan notifications before.
Note that its a government website and its not a virus.
The virus is appearing at the temp/cache folder.
Any idea why it happens? Its started today and it only happens on my PC and only at this specific website.
Other devices i have Bitdefender on it does not shows a torjan.
