Topic: Wtf is viglink?

+Anonymous A11.3 years ago #41,403

I cannot even copy and paste links without getting their own stupidly long URL.

And the results on Google on how to remove it appear to lead me to a bunch of assholes making fun of the asker and viglink's own site telling you to "opt-out"

Just install NoScript and make sure VigLink is blocked.

Nah, it's still malware. It just doesn't get officially classified as malware because its corporate-sponsored malware.
