Just had this prompt when trying to read a number of OcUK threads. Has anyone else had this?

Not personally, but it's probably someone's sig. Do you know which threads it happens in?

 

[Gerard]

Not had that yet.

 

[Hamster]

I seem to remember something like this being posted before and the cause was somebody's sig.

 

[SamPazz]

Edit: from a thread in PC Games about Games for windows live / xbox live id stoof

 

[rjh420]

[Jokester]

It's a false positive from Chrome, we've had a few reports about it today.

 

[shootersam]

It's just where someone is hosting their sig.

I've had that from links on Google results, very very rarely though. I just stay clear when I get that message

The stupid thing is that the sig itself doesn't contain any malware, just that something somewhere on that domain (which is probably used by multiple users) once contained malware.

I've had that today as well, in some PC gaming threads.

it will be a domain used by hundreds of thousands of people because its the webspace given to blueyonder customers , everyone got 50mb or whatever it was to host stuff.


but nevermind that lets flag a whole domain............. because a few people probably had malware on it

 

[Dj_Jestar]

I had it before, twas someone's signature. It's probably because it's a blueyonder address and someone else is hosting malware or similar on their blueyonder webspace.

 

[Zefan]

Yes. I reported it like a good girl.

As unfair as that might seem, just how hard is it for you to upload it to a 'reputable' image hosting site?
