[QUOTE="Block_shield, post: 1117023, member: 91740"] Malwarebytes found this on my PC. I deleted it, didn't remember exact location but it was in my Local/Temp folder. Any idea how I got this? No new browser extensions, no unknown programs, maybe through cookies? This is not danger, it cannot steal any data? This is the link to Malwarebytes website: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/detections/pup-optional-brightdata[/URL] I googled Bright data and it says they are data scraping company. That sounds evil 👹 [/QUOTE]
