  • [X] I have ensured my Modrinth App installation is up to date

What version of the Modrinth App are you using?

v0.8.7

What operating systems are you seeing the problem on?

Windows

Describe the bug

The ads appear to be using a compromised website. Every few minutes while Theseus is open, Malwarebytes will give me a notification about it blocking a connection to "hob9zeclb.puzztake.com" due to the website being compromised.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Malwarebytes Premium with Real-Time Protection enabled
  2. Install Theseus
  3. Run Theseus and wait a few minutes for Malwarebytes to block a connection

Expected behavior

Either the website is compromised and ads served from it need to be removed from rotation, or the website ISN'T compromised and someone needs to let Malwarebytes know so they can allow connections

Additional context

No response
