I just got a pop-up (approximately 8PM eastern time) about a download being done. I didn't request a download, which suggests to me this was pushed by an advertisement. The ad visible on screen was something to do with Ukraine. Anything to do with the conflict there makes me very twitchy, as both sides are among the best in the world at computer hacking and malware distribution.
The link to the ad is https://cpm.smoads.com/click?i=kvND1hHzRTQ_0&p=1720224109.219761
The URL of the thread I was on and the file name downloaded are visible in the screen capture below. I am on a Mac using Firefox.
