r/VimmsLair

Earlier this month I noticed a gray pop up appear when I hit the download button on a ROM telling me to "disable my ad blocker. Ad generated revenue etc.. and that bandwith is expensive" then notice my router app flooded with threat blocks mostly malware and one of phishing and deception. It continued to escalate until I removed the tab and all cookies and delete and reset from all sites in Chrome settings. This starts up again if I were to go back. I have a feeling the ROMs are still safe but just being on the site is the problem now. It's unfortunate, vimms lair was never like that before.

I got a dolphin bar with wii controller and was wondering what shooter games should I get. I got a raspberry pi 5 and would like to get some shooter mames,psx, or other lmk what roms work best with this set up. Also was wondering if I can use the dolphin bar for duck hunt for nes

Lord knows this question has been asked 100 times over, but is it safe to download ROMs from this site? I've recently made the switch from console to PC and not looking to get any unwanted malware/viruses on anew PC lol. Sorry for the repeat question, just nervous! Also, will Windows Defender pick up on anything that may be malicious? Thanks.
