I checked my screen time after a few weeks today and saw that it said 24 hours and it seems more than half of that was something called "psv4.userapi.com". My Mac is usually asleep for most of the time and some safari and other app windows are open. I was worried so I tried visiting the website using a VPN and with my antivirus active and it gave me an error page for some sort of shady Russian social media, I think. I ran a scan on Avast and it didn't seem to detect anything but this is obviously not normal can anyone please help? my Mac is an early 2015 Macbook air running Big Sur 11.4 as of now.

edit: I've figured out that the domain is the same as the one from where videos were embedded on an anime website I used a little while ago, i've deleted any downloads from it and cleared my caches. I do not know if it'll fix the problem if it doesn't ill do a backup from way before I had this issue. any further help is really appreciated
