Firstly, there's nothing wrong with it.

it just has a MASSIVE number of blocked requests even while being idle in the search bar.

it's averaging 5-15 and sometimes 22-83!

i'm not a very very expert guy but what the heck is that number??

and like are these adware? malware? anyware?

also gotta question, does that number mean that there's something wrong with my chrome (yes CHROME) and i need to reinstall it? or it's normal and there's nothing to worry about?

if they were indeed a (insertanykindofword)ware, how do i make sure that i was actually safe before i installed UBlock? and how can i reduce that amount?? (cuz it's just too much)

Hi! Bitdefender keeps sending weird notification.

For example: Chrome wanted to make a connection with what looks like a tracker site thing (literally had "tracker" in the name). But bitdefender blocked it.

And for the other one: a very random site I don't even know wanted to commit a very horrible crime (phishing).

So, are there actually dangerous and I should hide in a bunker immediately.

Or it's just a glitch and there's nothing to be worried from.

Oh yeah I didn't actually go to these sites.

Hello! out of curiousity, what does this even mean?

pretty sure that i didn't go on sketchy links. so i just wanted to know if this is dangerous or just a glitch
