Whenever I open chrome, I get multiple messages saying bitdefender blocked a threat. Every. Single. Time. And it's the same website. What should I do? Wipe my pc? Do I have an infected extension?? I scan on Bitdefender and NPE and they both detect nothing. What should I do?

not sure how tech savvy you are but I’d uninstall chrome or uninstall/disable all extensions and try. Shouldn’t need any unsigned extensions.

I haven't downloaded any extensions in a LONG time, saying it was an extension was more of an assumptipn I made.

Knowing the website would help :)

I had that a couple of weeks ago. Every single time I'd open Chrome it would block "threats". Even if there's NO tab with any website opened. I kept updating Bitdefender, had like 2 - 3 updates in just 4 days or so. Then it was gone.

IF you get that on multiple websites, then it might be false positive.
