Ignore the warnings.

Since yesterday, I am not getting the warning with Firefox. I tried the detested IE and it was OK, too. Chrome is still giving a badware warning.

DO NOT ignore the warnings. DO NOT ever ignore malware warnings.

In fact, suspect even places that do not give you warnings.

Yes, I'm paranoid about this topic. But it's an informed, experienced paranoia. I have a long history with the computer industry, and in fact, large, well funded and capable organizations are doing all they can to infect your computer. It is a real threat to the entire net in general.

Just because you're paranoid does not mean that they're not really out to get you.

In this case, the warnings can be very cautiously thought about and if it seems justified and you want to take the risk, you can decide to go ahead in spite of the warnings.

The site owners and administrators tell us that the site was in fact compromised back in June of 2015. They tell us that the site is fully cleaned and not currently infectious, that the only problem is that Google still lists the site on its warning list.

My personal site was once listed on the Google list after being compromised. I cleaned the site, and Google removed my site from the danger list within 24 hours.

The site admins tell us that there are additional complications preventing them from just having Google remove the site from the warning list. It has been in this condition for the eight and a half months since it was compromised.

It is possible that this is true. My shields and screens do not detect attempts at infection, and they're pretty good. However, DO NOT let this train you to ever ignore malware warnings and think about them.

It is also possible that there is some action on fixing the site's issues, as I didn't see the malware warning today, either.

In any of these cases, do not ever train yourself to ignore malware warning. If you do, your machine could easily be subverted, including with the popular ransom ware which encrypts all your data then demands payment for getting it back.

Do not ignore malware warnings. Trust - but verify.

The site doesn't install malware but the crowd here is a bad lot!

This site is supposed to install malware?

Oh WOOPS, the malware installer must have slipped up. Again. What a goofoff. Nothing goes right around here... Who's in charge?

[Leo_Gnardo]

This morning I was able to access TAG without friendly interference from malware warnings.

Also checked access via Google - still blocks access with a stern malware warning. Phooey!

[R.G.]

I've had normal operation with no warnings for a couple of days now.

I'm guessing that the experiment that HeeBGB was talking about was a success, and that Google removed the site promptly upon being asked.

I keep watching for an admin post about it, but I guess the site just not being malware listed is good.

[John_P_WI]

Same as Leo, warning is still there via chrome....

Still getting a warning w/ Safari on iPhone.

Chrome on the PC and on the Android phone is still giving me trouble. iE and Firefox have stopped warning me. I choose to stick my head in the sand and take it as a sign of progress. An uptick in traffic from more than just us hardcore visitors is a way to tell. Is there anyway to find this without being an admin?

[rp]

No change here.

Quick way to check is to open up a private browsing page window search something like "ampgarage marshall" if you get the warning then google is still scaring people away.

Is anyone organizing the big party for the one year anni? A year stranded on a deserted island out on the internets. A little bored a little lonely but still alive.

Anyone get their Coconut Rocket working yet?

[Phil_S]

Too bad. I have to say that I tried the private window in Firefox and it stopped me with the scary message.

[R.G.]

Yep. Attack warnings are back.

It was too good to be true.

It makes you wonder whether the warnings now are the same old warnings that just got suppressed for a day or two, or a new batch of malware that infested the place, suppressed or not.

In any case, Friday will be nine months on the attack page list.

Always had a problem with Google but never Yahoo, now it appears that Yahoo search is now issuing warnings and has an issue with TAG as well.
