Hey,
I watched a movie with my girlfriend on an illegal streaming site and I got a message a few times saying that my device had a virus.
As far as I know, this is the case with all streaming sites.
However, I downloaded this one movie and just deleted it from my files because I read that it could infect my iPad with a virus
What are the chances and what happens in the worst case scenario if my iPad gets a virus?

Loading...Can anyone tell me if this site is legit? The steam accounts are very cheap and seem very trustworthy.
Hello, I bought an HDD for data (I usually only have SSDs). I realize it's louder, but when I transfer large amounts of data to it, it creaks every few seconds like an old wooden board or a ship. Is that normal? No clicking or scratching.
A close relative is cheating on her husband and told me about her affair. How should I handle this? Apparently, he hasn't wanted to sleep with her for six years. I'd rather not know about it. They don't want to separate because they both have a child. He doesn't know about the affair.
Viruses for iPads and iPhones are as good as impossible, for good reason there are also no real virus scanners for iOS.
Therefore, at least for iPhones, this is just a “Angstmachmeldung”. What if this has other consequences, not device-related, is on another sheet…
Okey, I don’t really have to pay an anti-virus app, do I?
Avast anti virus app 24,99€ Annual. ?
Something older, but still applies today:

The grounding principle of iOS prevents both viruses and effective virus scanners: Each app runs in its own sandbox, a completely insulated area. Therefore, neither viruses nor viruses can be active across the system. Avast can’t stop it, Apple prevents it. Read exactly what Avast can do.
The security concept of Apple, iOS is widely praised as very good.
So save yourself the Avast-Reichmach-Abo!
Thank you, I fell a stone from my heart😮 💨
Wrong question!
Correct would be: “Since when is a browser a virus scanner?” (Get it?) 😉
Add screenshot to see how this looks
Didn’t take a screenshot of it.
All iPhones have a high virus protection.
0.00%, nothing can be installed in iOS, which is not from the app store.
What you saw is a simple pop-up window.
Was not from the App Store, but a movie download from a website
And that’s why you can’t have a virus. A virus could not install.
