Sorry about that, see my other post (RE: possibly a cookies issue). I was going on the assumption, as several others did, that you were running Windows at that point and had a malware infection. Malware Bytes is a Windows anti-malware program, thus is useless on Linux. It is one I recommend to all my Windows using friends/family/acquaintances etc (those who are unwilling or unable to use Linux, or at least Mac...).
Your first post just said gibberish Chinese, which many of us took as a sign of an infection, and not literally a Chinese translation problem. La Volpe di Fuoco is "Firefox" in Italian (or as far as Google translate can give me anyway). I have been playing Assassins Creed Brotherhood which takes place in Renaissance Italy.... so sorry about that ;) It is not a suggestion for a program to run. Since you are getting persistent Chinese issues it seems like it could be a cookies problem, or something along those lines. ---------- Matt M.
