Exclamation Why is Chrome telling me MT has Malware?

Is this part of the new oppression? I mean, I know the advertising on this site is getting out of hand, but this a bit much...

lolol, it does appear MT picked up even more "interesting" advertisers from what I'm seeing in your post there.

I am not getting that warning in Chrome in Linux. I am running not add block and not signed in with any users. I did shoot Nolan a message.

Thanks Shuiend

Note: Win7 here, not Linux. Was being sarcastic with teh Vlad. Also note: Running Adblock Plus because even though I'm a Supporter, I STILL see adds on here from time to time for no apparent reason. I just wish I could get ABP on my phone for the mobile site. You may not be getting the warning because its on one of the rotating advertisements. I'm sure IBS can look into it.

I just tried mt.net in Chrome in windows 7 and I did not get the error there. I will keep the page on refresh and see if it pops up ever.

Thanks for the heads up shuiend,
It was a picture in that thread that Brain had posted of the HKS manifold. The warning should go away now that I removed that one image and resubmitted that page to google.

I've noticed chrome is funny sometimes with that warning. You'll go into the tell me why part and it'll have no good reason to have blocked it. IE the site has not had sypware detected on it in the past 6 months, it has never downloaded an unwanted file to googles server, etc, etc.

Download Ad-Away. It's a hosts file blocker for Android. If you don't have Android, buy a real phone.

Bringing this back, although it should be in the supporter area maybe? The link on the right hand side for boundary engineering is giving me the malware notice. Anyone else?

It happens even if you just try to go to boundary engineering's website.

Travis reported that his site was hacked some time ago.

https://www.miataturbo.net/boundary-...website-70679/

Is that the old site or the new site that you are getting the notice from?

I see, was not tracking that. Thanks! MT.net might not want to link to that old site....
