Do you have a specific malware plugin or just base functionality in chrome? I didn't see any errors on that page when using chrome (I usually use firefox, but have chrome installed).Juice wrote:Chrome has blocked page 2 of the Vikings-Packers prediction thread because of Malware.
What's triggering it is the avatar of the user named Vincent Vega. Of course, it's not malware or anything close. It's just being flagged because of the domain name from which it's being served.Content from members.lycos.nl, a known malware distributor, has been inserted into this web page.

Thanks for the detective work, Eli! In firefox, I got a warning when I went to the site directly, but don't get it with the image linked in. I removed the avatar and will PM the user just in case he hasn't seen this thread.Eli wrote:Ah, here it is. I guess I didn't read the warning very closely.
