Hi

I accidentally clicked a link and received a report.

Quote

Event: Previously opened dangerous link detected
Application name: chrome.exe
Application path: C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application
Component: Web Anti-Virus
Result description: Not processed
Type: Threat of data loss
Precision: Exactly
Threat level: High
Object type: Web page
Object path: pumb - whales . com
Reason: Cloud Protection

I spaced out the object path so it wouldn't be redirected there. Is my PC in trouble? If so how do I fix it?

I did a full scan and it said no threats. Should I be fine or not? If not what steps should I take

Welcome to Kaspersky Community.

 

It seems, that URL could be a false positive:

I sent the URL to K. analysts, waiting the verdict.

So is it a false positive? I'm still confused whether my PC is safe or not?

I see thank you very much. But there was this website I checked that said it is a malicious link. I think it was called nictasoft, should I still be concerned?

That is a different URL You posted before...

 

If You mean https://www . nictasoft . com/, I don't see it is malicious.

I meant that I checked if that pumb whales is a malware or not and the nictasoft website said it is.
