Hello, today when i started my Pc i wanted to surf a bit in the internet. So when i started google chrome this page instantly appeared ( chrome-extension://gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom/pages/acceptabl... ). I dont know what this is, is this really from Adblock or is it just some phishing site. I started a Virus scan now. Lets hope it really is from Adblock.
Btw the site is in German (atleast for me). If you dont want to click on the link i'll upload a screenshot.
