For the kid from Eastern Europe earning monthly 150-200 usd from adfly, well it was a blessing. When I was 13 back in 2010, I made monthly a minimum wage in my country for over a year. My best holidays as a kid 😊

I had an xp lended to me. Minecraft played at like 10 fps so my friend suggested I get optifine. He linked me to the mc forum post with the adfly link. I followed the instructions to downloading it(I did not hit the green "download now" buttons)but when I did, it displayed something called "optimum installer" The installer was literally rigged where if i hit no, it was like fuck you imma do it anyway. Gave me a cocktail of shitty malware that I knew how to deal with (ilivid, babylon etc) as well as a fucking nasty trojan called "IRP Hook." Just mde minecraft even more of a frame-skipping mess.

Nah for me it was trying to install mods without reading anything and destroying my computer by downloading random jar files.

I didn't even know about custom launchers at the time, so I thought every mod just worked like OptiFine.

Ah, good-ol' Adfly, the one thing literally every person who downloaded random minecraft mods they found on the forums in 2014 can unite under. You learned quick to never interact with whatever it showed and to hit that skip button ASAP, usually to get to a mediafire link where the actual mod was hosted. It's nostalgic to see, but damn am I glad we've moved past those dark ages years ago and have stuff like Modrinth and Curseforge now.

@@MasterBlek Deny it on purpose...? Why are you assuming things about me for no reason? My dad has been working with computers for over 30 years and he didn't blink an eye when I told him about that happening. He just recommended that I do a computer scan, and preferably one from an external drive to boot up Linux and do it from there. I use Google Chrome. And I don't remember ever messing with those settings. Maybe I did, I don't know. But even then, it should say that something is downloading, which it did not. Do you truly believe that the only way I could have had something download was by clicking something? Do you not understand how viruses work? I've gotten plenty of alerts from my antivirus software saying it blocked a download that was "notavirus:HEUR" or something like that. I looked it up, and it means that it's adware. And that happened in times when I didn't click anything. Why would I, a person who is willingly looking up videos about computers and viruses, be foolish enough to click on a stupid big link in the middle of the screen when I've been using adfly for years, originally to download Minecraft mods? And why would I lie about clicking on it? What could I possibly gain from lying about getting a virus from a website and replying to some random person on a computer video?

​@@MidnightTheKitten Because you read something and clicked on it... I am aware of that psychology and also there is no way for adfly to send files to you without your permission. If a downloading window shows up asking you to "download or not" something then DO NOT PRESS "YES". Perhaps you didn't even read the message and pressed the button anyways thinking that it's about "skipping" or something.

Adfly itself has no risks, but as soon as you click on something you risk downloading something sketchy. Just close anything that opens by itself

I come from the Hispanic side, I remember that a lot of the pirated content was behind those ugly ADFLY and similar "wait for 5 sec." links. Hell, the uploader was so scummy that you had to go through 3 ADFLY links back to back. It got so bad that some dudes in comments legit shared the clean link to download and everyone praised them as heroes

Because they don't care who buys the adspace from them - most will filter things to appeal to bigger-ticket buyers, but adfly doesn't do that. It's a relic of a different, more archaic marketing strategy.
