vararray online?
-
Anyone familiar with seeing this in Vivaldi?
Shows up in a tab when V is first started. Originally thought it was part of an extension that was installed. Haven't been able so far to track down its origin.
Wondering if I should just clean install and start over?
Thanks

here it's considered suspicious. if the tab shows up after you close it, I'd say you have some browser hijack. If doesn't show up again, probably was opened by some other site (ads and what not). Use some ad-blocker like ublock origin and block vararray.online, or even add vararray.online in your hosts file -
Thanks @iAN-CooG
Tab is showing on start after machine boots but not on browser restart.
Will add it to the hosts file unless re-installing Vivaldi makes more sense.

a system check against malware is advised in any case.

Did that yesterday and nothing showed.
Thanks for your responses.

Thank you @dLeon.
Haven't tried a clean profile yet but will.

@escolar Quick and simple way to check a clean profile is just rename the Default folder

Thanks @TbGbe.
Good tip to know.
At the moment it appears to have been an extension issue with Tab Reloader. After deleting it I haven't been able to replicate the problem so far. Should have known better as it hasn't been updated since 2012.
After using Firefox for 15+ years I might be trying a little too hard to replicate functionality that I had gotten used to using FF extensions.
Thanks also to iAN-CooG and dLeon for their input.
