Z8 ads=virus/fix

[MOD]Zzxq

Ok I have got 3 virus's off the ads on the forums here at z8 games.At all times my anti-virus was on.
I guess I fixed this by:I was using iexplorer browser.I downloaded firefox which is a safer browser.The virus I recieved here shut my firewall off.I did not know this untill I downloaded firefox and checked my system over.
So if you are getting a virus from this site download mozilla firefox web browser,it is free and lays over regular browser.Download malewarebytes to scan your computer for any malicious spyware or adware.Make sure you firewall is turned on.You can do this by going/start/control panel/windows firewall.
Here is firefox link.

Here is anti maleware link.

Since I have done all this I have browsed these forums with no problems at all.So if you do this you will be safe!!!

Well to my understanding it fixed it here on my end of things.The ads dont even pop up any more with mozilla.So its worth a shot for people out there with this problem!!!!!

The ad happened because you got the virus actually
Its not internet explorer.
Also safe Chrome (chrome is pretty secure), maybe opera.

You made the right choice by using FireFox. FireFox is faster, more secure, & customizable.™

Yeah the switch over was kinda weird.Funny I was using old school explorer,but I believe firefox was the fix for this.

Kaspersky and CrossFire aren't buddies, you'll have some problems.
