FAO NEAL: Reported Attack Site? Anyone else getting this too?

August · 10-19-10, 08:20 AM

I wonder if Reported Attack Sites just means that someone, perhaps a disgruntled former poster, is trying to cause trouble?

Don't think so, since it's apparently based on data Google collected themselves.

It probably is. And the original problem was with the Google ads on thie site, so it's ironic that Google caused the problem and then reported it.

This is what I get, using Google Chrome browser

Yesterday I was having just a warning advice when I connected to subsim, but since this morning it has increased to 2 advices each time I try to acces. Getting worse?

All I see in this thread is flag messages from your browsers
The original problem was attempted Trojan infections that My antivirus software picked up ( see the other thread to name them ).
There is no threat in a flag message its just advisory messages place in your browser.
I have seen no threat message or had any attack blocked from this site for weeks so is it not the case of Google closing the barn door after the horse has bolted.
Surly all that needs reporting would be any attacks that your antivirus reports to you because at this time the site itself seems clean

The Users in our german ubi-Forum reported the same problems with SubSim: http://forums-de.ubi.com/eve/forums/...2/m/9151040888

All have with FireFox (and other Browsers) the Virus warning !

Best regards,

It may take some time to see results from Google.

Ironic, but surely not suprising?

Got the message this morning as well, gawd it was annoying trying to navigate with 'REPORTED ATTACK SITE' popping up with every new page

Oddly enough, I've had nothing at all here - no warnings or anything. Using Chrome.
