Well, now Firefox is giving me an equivalent message. . .
Which thread at you trying to go to?
To reiterate from earlier...
There was a compromise of a page in the photo gallery. I have temporarily disabled the photo gallery and removed it from public view (photo links will have a little red X now). Any links to the photo gallery may have caused warnings on non-gallery pages, and may continue to do so depending on your cache.
It's possible/probable that other non-related pages may get a warning page (like certain sub-forums).
On top of that, it takes Google and stopbadware.org several hours to respond to removal requests. Delisting (having the warning removed) takes time as well...
While the malware is currently removed, and the SB forums are clean , I don't want to re-enable the photo gallery until I can be assured that the exploit is closed. Rest assured that whether there's ONE report of malware on the site, or 50 reports of the same incident, I am working on it, and take these matters very seriously.
People who PM'ed me about this should not expect a reply.
Thanks.

Got it again somewhere today, but I am happy to click Ignore.
As far as I can tell, we're only listed on "stopbadware.org" which I've requested another review. Using their own tools, I see no evidence of malicious code.
We also subscribe to a third party service which not only protects our site, but aids in removal... they show our site as clean. Unfortunately, stopbadware and google can take up to 10 hours to delist.

SB must have pissed of a nerd.

FWIW, When I clicked through the "Advanced" option with Chrome, it reported 1 potential malware detection in the last 90 days. . .
Clicking through seems to have eliminated the warning(s)
