There was an error rendering this rich post.

WHEN I GO TO WEBSITES, INCLUDING THIS ONE I FREQUENTLY GET THIS MESSAGE:

Access to r.srvtrck.com was denied

You don't have the user rights to view this page.

HTTP ERROR 403

I THOUGHT BITDEFENDER WOULD GET RID OF THIS BUT THIS THING PERSISTS. I DID A SEARCH AND THIS IS WHAT I FOUND:

R.srvtrck.com is a sometimes-malicious website related to several advertising companies, including PopCash and PopAds. It is used for redirecting affected browsers to sponsored content.

SO TWO QUESTIONS:

ONE - WHY DIDN'T BITDEFENDER NOT GET RID OF THIS.

TWO- HOW DO I GET RID OF THIS.

IT'S ANNOYING AND IT INTERFERES WITH MY WEB USE.
