Infected ads used leaks in Google Chrome

Many people use Google Chrome, as it is currently the most popular browser that is.However, the last time researchers found a leak in Google Chrome that showed pop-ups.

Users were redirected to a website containing malware.If you use an adblocker, you will not be bothered by this.
The malware exploited a security flaw that allowed the pop-up blocker to be bypassed.This is a vulnerability that was reported on April 11 and was resolved when Google Chrome 75 was released.

Should I switch?

Now that you've seen this you may be wondering if perhaps you should start using a different browser.If you don't plan to switch to another browser then you might be interested in using an adblocker.

If you are planning to use a different browser then there are several options.One of those alternatives is the brave browser, it is no secret that we at MijnHostingPartner are big fans of this browser.

This is mainly due to the fact that Brave focuses specifically on privacy.In this browser, advertisements and trackers are blocked by default.As a result, the Brave browser is also a lot faster than its competitors. Brave is 60 percent faster than Google Chrome.

Brave even goes so far in this that when you start up the browser you can see how many commercials and trackers have been blocked.You will also see how many minutes you saved in total by using Brave.If you want to test your hosting Brave is an excellent choice.If you want to use Brave you can download the browser at the following link: Download Brave.

Other alternatives

Of course, you may not want to use the Brave browser. Another good alternative to Google Chrome is Mozilla FireFox.
FireFox does not have an adblocker as standard, but it is a lot faster than Google Chrome.However, with Mozilla FireFox it is possible to install add-ons for this purpose, here you can download an adblocker.As a developer it may also be interesting to use FireFox, because they have a good debugger built in.
