In my normal surfing with SeaMonkey, occasionally clicking a link will
open up an additional tab for a video downloader known to be malware
that looks similar to, but definitely is not, the one click Youtube
video downloader extension. Since it is not a pop-up, the pop-up blocker
has no effect. My impression is that it is not a random occurrence, as
it seems to know my computer, or at the very least it knows that the
one-click Youtube extension is installed, but neither Avast nor
Malwarebytes has ever picked it up.
I've managed to get it out of Firefox using the Block Site extension.
Unfortunately Block Site is not compatible with SeaMonkey, so I will
need to do something else to get rid of it. What is a simple way to do
this?
I would suggest using URL n Extension Block instead of Blocksite, and
running that through the converter to allow it to install in SeaMonkey.
It works. The address of the converter:
http://addonconverter.fotokraina.com/
First of all, my experience with the converter was terrific. I hope more
people come to know that it exists. I may never have to open an
install.rdf file again.
On the down side, my experience with URL n Extension Block did not
achieve the desired result. I uninstalled it and, thanks to the
converter, installed blocksite in its place. I can finally report that
the URL is TOTALLY supressed.
