Do you use AdSense Notifier? It may be unsafe (proof).

    Keep in mind we are still talking about Adsense Notifier here, if someone were to try and get your computer infected with a trojan just to steal your cookies, Adsense Notifier would be the least of your worries. As for the link you posted, completely different from what we are talking about and impossible to actually implement on Adsense.

    Sorry, you're the one that seems to be lost. Just because you can read an article on something doesn't make you knowledgeable :rolleyes:

    As I said, IF someone tried to get your computer infected with a trojan, your adsense cookies should be the least of your worries. As for getting your cookies stolen from visiting a web page, especially your adsense account page(s), (THIS IS FROM THE LINK YOU POSTED, but instead of MySpace replace that with Google Adsense) not going to happen.

    Oh and when you have very little time please do attempt to show proof, I can bet that you won't be getting anywhere, but don't come crying back to me ;)

    I am not going to waste more time with you, and I am not going to prove my skills, you opinion is totally nothing to me, and saying things that I didn't try is my mistake so sorry, but that doesn't make it impossible, allow me to put a trojan in your computer and I will show you how to hack an AdSense account, I promise not to keylog you, I will only use the notifier data ...

    pffft, bunch of paranoid people on these forums.

    Assuming you don't just want my worthless personal information, anyone wanting to use my PUB # just ask, i'll give it to you without you needing to hack.

    I didn't say anywhere that it's impossible to get your information stolen, but again using ADSENSE NOTIFIER really makes no difference if someone was trying to get your computer infected with a trojan. So once again talking about Adsense Notifier, it's not a threat to use and you should not be worried. Unless of course someone asks you to download a magical .exe that will increase your adsense earnings by 500%, then your anti-virus doesn't pick it up as being a trojan, and after that you still have no idea it was something fishy... :rolleyes:

    Besides why would anyone go through all that trouble to get someone's personal info and pub-id? Like cldnails said.

    Adsense notifier merely gave me a heart attack. I just got back home and took a look at it and it was reporting 21 click - $180! First thing that crossed my mind was that I'm in a lot of trouble. Refreshed it and went back to normal. Who knows what's going on with this extension..

    naaaah it's a normal thing it happens with the the extension and the desktop notifier too ... just an error on downloading data ...

    make sure to change the refresh time to half an hour at least, don't show google that you are cheap and checking your earnings every 5 minute ...
