Stradavarius37 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Worked fine for me - using chrome. AVAST did not ding any problems either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesseFrank Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I had the same issue yesterday and contacted the administrator, who informed me that it was a false positive and is expected to be removed from the Google list in 24 hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiPiFFS Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Fine for me as well with Chrome and using Eset smart security that normally flags sites with malware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtjforyou Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Forget all these stupid malware or virus tools... Ridiculous to even say that a website has malware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impulse Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Having the same problem on Chrome right now (18:06). Home page is available, searches work great, then get the malware warning when trying to view an ad. I'm just bypassing the Google (Chrome) warning and having no problems once I'm in. To vtjforyou, it's not my malware of virus tools, it's Google that's throwing the warning. Edited February 24, 2014 by impulse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignore this message, it could be a malware message. Hadn't thought of that. Dang. Maybe I have one of those interweb fungus-es since I referred to it? Time to pull out the soap and bleach.

wym Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Not at all crazy to talk about websites being infected with malware. Very often this happens without the complicity nor even awareness of the site admins. This is the most common vector these days for the bad guys getting control of your computer and using it for their botnets. Remember as long as you have flash, javascript etc enabled you're giving the remote site permission to execute arbitrary software on your computer. Google has been performing a great service making us aware of these problems, so when a site (or its ads) contain malware the users become aware much faster than they did in the past, and the issue forces the site admins to take care of the problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP question was is he the only one getting the problem.Yes or No will suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) No problem/message (McAfee Siteadvisor, Avast, Firefox, Chrome). Edited February 26, 2014 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 It appears the site admin has corrected the problem as when I checked at the time of the OP I got warning messages and just now no messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
