That link looks very virus infested, beware.

probably ransomware: https://www.2-spyware.com/remove-the-arialtext-font-was-not-...

It's some js file that loads exe files. How would they get executed than? Another prompt to manually do so?

edit: thanks for removing the link :)

I concur, it tried to do the same thing for me.

" The "Mercury Text" font was not found. The web page you are trying to load is displayed incorrectly, as it uses the "Mercury Text" font. To fix the error and display the next, you have to update the "Mozilla Font Pack"."

It's probably a hijacked account too, that account has legitimate comments but was dormant until today.

I doubt that, it's quality content apart from the link :)

probably just a never updated, but originally legit wordpress site.

I find this ironical that the technology(in this particular case their site) which is considered as a savior for these languages and dialects, by archiving them, indexing them, can get itself rendered as something to stay away from instead of making this resource accessible.
