Administrators Marcos 4,709 Posted September 28, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 28, 2021 If the website in question is accessed right after you launch Chrome, most likely you have an extension installed which tries to connect there. Try disabling all extensions and re-enable one-by-one until you narrow it down. Also make sure that you have syncing disabled in Chrome, otherwise the extension will be installed each time you launch Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 4,709 Posted September 29, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 29, 2021 The case will probably need a deeper investigation and possibly also a remote session will be required. Please contact your local ESET distributor for assistance if you have an ESET license purchased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 4,709 Posted September 29, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 29, 2021 Maybe it's just that you enabled notifications from that website. I would open Site settings in Chrome, find the website in the list and check if it has notifications enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem seems to me to have been solved, I did the chrome reset and it is no longer showing up. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
