codelab page: https://yeoman.io/codelab/keep-going.html

The malware page spies itself to be flash update page.

When you try to install that update package, some software will be installed on your machine. What's worse is that your browser will be hijacked, the default search engine and new tab page will all be set to weknow.ac, and i can't set them back. 😢

Maybe we should remove that link now.

Thanks for letting us know.

And yes, the link should be removed. The fountain generators seem to unmaintained for quite while.

So this link should be removed. The sooner the better.

Do you like to create a PR?
