Special. This impacts browsers ( Chrome )
So, may have impacted mobile devices.

If you visited certain web pages they may have launched a hidden window on your system.

Not to hack you, but to gain cpu cycles. Basically, the by having the open window, your system is used for their benefit - creating or 'mining' crypto-currency.

I have a thread on BlockChain, crypto-currencies, you can dig into should you want more info.



Solution, ensure your anti-malware is up to date. Your Anti-Virus while you are at it.


Websites use your CPU to mine cryptocurrency even when you close your browser
