[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 949538, member: 78686"] As already suggested by some members, 1) Try hardening the OS by using something like Hard Configurator/SimpleWindowsHardening. If using Microsoft Defender then also check Configure Defender. Both have dedicated threads here. 2) Use a password manager if you can like Bitwarden. 3) It's a must to install an adblocker like uBlock Origin. I would also like to mention another capable and trusted one which is Adguard. If uBlock Origin causes any issue by chance then there's always Adguard as an alternative solution. 4) Ignore whoever says not to use an Adblocker. 5) Set the browser to block all third-party cookies. 6) Delete cookies now and then. Maybe two, three times a month at least. 7) As Mr. [USER=71262]oldschool[/USER] is back after a long time, follow his motto, "Stay safe, not paranoid". ✌️ [/QUOTE]
