Malware on Zippyshare and Sharing Hosts Discussion

I had same problem as madubai5933 when attempting to download the files. My setup is Windows 10 ,Chrome, chrome Ghostery blocker - all latest updates.
The issue is not the Cyclops file - which is virus free, and as osiris4isis says has no executable. It is malware on zippyshare file sharer.
As soon as I clicked anywhere on the opening page (even on the scroll bars at the side) a new window opens and the virus immediately downloads - together with a host of sub windows warning of virus. Some of these warnings"may be also malware.
My browser was jammed and only by "ctrl alt del" could I extricate myself ! Windows Defender removed the virus.

I repeated with adblocker extension installed - then absolutely fine as suggested above.

So I would suggest that when using Zippyshare (maybe others also) the use of Adblocker is mandatory.

keep up the good work Kenta2, catymag, osiris4isis - appreciated
