    yep my Avast! virus protection got hit twice on here also, but my protection blocked the attack and notified me.

    my best bet someone is trying to hack into DanPs PAFOA server.

    It's scary to think that because Google doesn't think you should view a particular website, it'll throw up a big scary red box at you. How long before they stop allowing you to bypass that warning? And from there, how long until they start censoring the internet ("there's malware!" is pretty vague, and could refer to almost anything) of things they don't like... say, for example, conservative/libertarian news sources or online firearms retailers?

    Sounds like a business opportunity.

    Didn't stop the warning for me.

    I'm also getting "phishing" warnings as well as the usual malware.

    That's because the warning is based on website, not based on an installation attempt. There could be nothing here at all and you would still get a warning.

    It's a blacklist.
