      Why would you let these link spamming fake scammer ads on the Opera start page?

      Oh even better. How white trash is this? Not even an option to post an image on your crap forum.

      You have "Alert! you've got 27 viruses on your device. Clean now" ads that directly link to pages that trigger malware AND antivirus alerts.

      So every time I open the browser now variations of these scam ads are what I see, because you clearly have absolutely no screening in place..

      No, I don't have a virus.
      No, I don't have maleare.
      Yes I have anti-malware and separate antivirus software active. What do you think is triggering alerts about your browser start page?
      I get this on No other browser but yours and only within your ads on the start page. But they come up every freaking time on the start page.

      But hey, if you can't figure out how to do a simple image attachment in your forums in a secure way, probably haven't the first clue what ads you're serving.
