best-mmorpgs.com is no longer working and it infected my computer when I went to it. Steer clear.

I have just removed best-mmorpgs.com from rotation.
What browser are you using? And what are the symptoms of the virus, were you able to clean your system from infection?

I was able to clean it. It popped up to a different page and the window to allow notifications popped up in the left. I clicked No. Then I started getting a Microsoft Edge notification in the lower right right that my McAfee was expired (i dont use it). So i did a boot time scan with avast and it cleaned "Script":SNH-gen [Trj]
I was using Chrome.
It infected a file in c:\users\username\appdata\local\comms\unistore\data\7

I use Avast which wont allow Windows Defender to run continuously so not sure if it would find it. Malwarebytes also found it.
