Chrome MalWare Browser Warning For This Site

Post by nailgunner »

Just a heads up, this morning I received a warning from Chrome not to enter this website. Obviously I entered anyway, but here is the link to their diagnostic info on this site:

I do my browsing of suspecious sites via a browser on one of my thin clients with EWF so that after visiting I can simply reboot the thin client to remove any nasties.

After poking around I would be leary of accessing the sites mentioned in the 3 posts from new user mekmj. He/She could be totally unaware and perhaps there is not a problem with them. But I am suspecious that they are the cause of the forum being flagged.

The problem should be resolved. We have requested Google to review the site and remove the message.

I've run scans with 2 different products and it doesn't appear that I've picked up anything. The Google warning is still showing, but I feel I'm "safe" being in here. Although as VaHam mentioned, I would/will avoid clicking on any links inside for a while longer.

Permanent fix in FF is Iools-Options-Security, uncheck 'Block Reported Attack Sites.'

Not recommended.

A permanent fix will to make sure the site is cleaned up, not to find a way around the warning.

I have noticed that one and the same site can be freely accessed from one browser and is blocked from the other browser. Do you experience the same? It looks like different browsers have different security setting. Or what is the reason? I am currently surfing from https://postcodefinder.net/england/london Will it change if I enter the site using VPN software. If somebody tried this, please let me know the result.
