However that transpired, Google Chrome is set up so that you have to grant permission for Notifications. Heck, it might have carefully – or sneakily – phrased it so that you thought it was something really helpful and useful like “Get updates on your favorite new movies and celebrity news: Click OK” In fact, you probably clicked “OK” when it asked if it could send you notifications without realizing that’s what you were approving. Really pretty frustrating, but the good news is that it’s not a virus or malware in the sense of most computer malware infections. And now, those helpful little Google Chrome notifications that pop up with breaking news or the update that your latest download has completed is being infected by malware too. Spam pop-ups, even days after you leave a questionable – or infected – Web site? Yep. In the endless Cold War of spammers versus the rest of the online world, there’s always another avenue to exploit.
