Avid website displaying in Chinese
 

It's all Chinese tonight. I think it's Chinese.

Re: Did the Avid site get hacked?
 

No, you Got HAcked...

some browsers use a Proxy...
for example Puffin Browser for iPad has a Proxy in California...

everytime i try to login to Hotmail or Google or eBay with Puffin, i get a Red Flag...

this means your IP address is routed through a Chinese server, and AVID web server automatically detects that "you are in China", and Displays Chinese Characters for you...

try http://www.malwarebytes.org

Pretty sure I did not get hacked because this occurs no where else but on the Avid site. Now my account there may have been hacked. But not seeing this behavior on any other web page or site. Also I am using IE latest version. Security levels set to high.

Latest Internet Explorer is Microsoft EDGE for Windows10, and is amazing fast..
Windows has a free Anti-Virus Called: Defender.

Defender for Windows7 is useless...
my father had 6000 virus, Windows Defender didn´t detect 1.

Also eats CPU & Slows Down the System...

Disable Defender, install Malwarebytes.
/Start/Control Panel/Search Control Panel: Defender.

Yeah, I don't use Edge I use IE. But yes, in windows 10. Edge was not my cup of tea.

Suddenly, after about an hour, it flipped back to English. Weird.

Future new company owners doing a test broadcast perhaps?

That happened to me a few weeks ago. I deleted all my cookies and it went back to English. Very weird, very annoying.

In case this happens... there's a Language selector near the bottom of the page (4th link from the left just above the social media icons/links).
