INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Far from being malicious, your browser's "about:blank" page is just a blank page; however, some computer viruses will force your browser to redirect to a blank page when you attempt to load a website. Being redirected to the "about:blank" page when attempting to access other websites (e.g., Facebook or Google) is a good sign that your computer is infected, but you'll usually see some other signs of infection as well:  Pop-ups recommending software or program installations Fake security alerts Spammy advertisements or adult images If your browser started displaying the virus side-effects only after downloading a specific file, the file is most likely responsible for the virus. Since the list of potentially responsible programs is virtually endless, you'll have to use this kind of process of elimination to determine which file or program to remove. If you recently installed a program from an unverified source (e.g., from anywhere other than the Microsoft Store or the App Store), the program may have included a malicious program which causes your browser to redirect. Most antivirus programs will catch this kind of virus before it has a chance to install, but viruses may occasionally get through.

SUMMARY: Understand what the "about:blank" page is. Look for other signs of a virus. Consider your recently downloaded files. Determine whether you installed a new program.
