I was attempting to download something that was legitimate. There were click-to-next buttons and normal ads appeared. After some pop-ups, Facebook opened automatically. The site was 1short.us with an ad notification saying I was on my profile. The link was: https://www.facebook.com/r.php... Should I be concerned? Could this be a hack or keylogger? Please let me know so I can clarify.

Is it secure to press that button? It looks like a Facebook link.

Would altering the password stop anyone from accessing your account? Are you sure?

Shake your hands in front of your screen and shout "Get rid of those viruses!" very loudly. It's hard to say exactly what you're asking, but I'm here to help!

Keep an eye on your operations for any unusual activity, though there’s limited further action possible. It might help if you consider whether a keyboard shortcut was used to switch tabs.
