Title: Virus at BaldStyle link
Post by: MunkyMunk on October 30, 2015, 10:57:25 AM

I clicked on the link to BaldStyle products which was on the SlyBaldGuys.com homepage, and my Avast antivirus software notified me that the page tried to install something called Bitcoin Miner on my PC. Avast stopped it, but I figured I should let you know that this could be a problem with that link/website.

Hi MunkyMunk,

I didn't see a direct link to BaldStyle from the website, but there is a link to this review:

Which page website did you see the virus warning on?

Yeah, it was from that review. I followed the link within the review and got the Avast warning re: a Bitcoin Miner software installer. You can see part of the url in the image I posted of the Avast warning.
