Google flags forums for malware

When I try to come here using Chrome I get a red banner page warning malware has been detected on the forums twice in the last 90 days.

Make sure you are using strong malware protection and scan your computers.

I use two free products; Avast and malwarebytes, plus the microsoft update.

Leo,

Your welcome.

The issue occurs on IE, Firefox; I do not Google I Bingle...Google likes informtion for any source when ever you log on or use there technology. I even avoid Droids now

I use Avast as well.

All,

The site admins have worked on this last night and all should be normal. Let me know if you are continuing to have Chrome malware messages.

Thanks,
Leo

No malware message, I now get NOTHING.

No data received

Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data.

It's a Chrome thing and will need to be updated by Google. The issue was already fixed on Pelicans side. Any other browser will work as normal.
