It seems the site that made the Black Metal Shard Theme got hacked. I got a malware warning when I switched to it after a member reported issues with that theme.
I am looking in to it but I'd suggest switching themes if you use the Black Metal Shard Theme. I will probably have to delete it but I will wait to hear back from the help desk...

I have a used laptop that was loaded with bad stuff, over 400 "objects detected" lol. But the free trial only last so long but it was worth the $25 to clean it up. I brought the laptop on the road with me but it was so full of bad stuff I could barely use it.

Malwarebytes is an excellent tool. Well worth the $25. I've cleaned up three PC's this year using it.

Black Metal Shard sounds like a speed metal band from some college town
