I noticed when looking up poe2 builds initially it said the links were 1-3 hours old. I sat on them for about 20 minutes and refreshed the page and every single link jumped 10 hours. They all went from 1-3 hours to 11-13 hours old. I've ran MWB and Windows defender with 0 results. I refreshed and they went back to the normal 1-3 hours.

Kinda strange, any insight? Possible something running in the background?

I never clicked on a link. I sat on the google results.

Huh? Not understanding. What would make every link on my page change by 10 hours with a refresh?

You asked if it's possible to be virus/trojan. No, it's not, its not how it works and makes no sense

Sites can freely change the updated time on their articles etc.

But every single site decided to change their time by 10 hours?

Typed in google. Scrolled through whole page. Looked at the times, never clicked on one link. Refreshed the page 20-30 minutes later and every link jumped 10 hours.

Could be an extension in your browser potentially? If it happens again i'd disable all of them besides essential ones to pinpoint it
Seems to happen a lot with social media ones

It is likely that you were looking at a cached version of the page from your nearest CDN and the page happened to update between the time you originally looked at it and the time you refreshed.
