Perhaps the worst possible scenario is when a bank website is hosting malicious ads: you never know what can be installed and when on your computer if you click on the ad banners.
Something similar happens with security websites hosting malicious ads. They are supposed to be for security information. The people browsing such sites trust the content to be safe, but in actual fact because of the ad banners the resources may be anything but trustworthy.
If you want to check AV reviews, it’s better to visit well-known, trusted resources like av-comparatives.org, av-test.org and virusbtn.com
Kaspersky Anti-Virus detects the threat mentioned above as Trojan-FakeAV.Win32.ErrorFix.
