[QUOTE="Prorootect, post: 711258, member: 905"] [SIZE=5][B]Don't push your luck.[/B][/SIZE] I would like to remind you, that going looking for cryptocurrency mining websites could easily end up catching the more serious things like ransomwares or other bad things, so you have to be very cautious! If I go on the unknown web, I always go with above all Redirect Control and Policy Control add-ons in Firefox, as minimal defense... Don't push your luck. Don't tempt the devil, he's hungry.
