    XS and problems with google chrome

    Hey guys it just started happening today



    Sorry it is in portuguese, this already showed up twice in like 5minutes. I'll just do some translation

    It starts with "Warning: There was malicious software detected up ahead"

    "Google chrome blocked the access to this page of XS"

    "There was inserted content from www.firegoon.com, a known malicious software distributor. Visiting this page now, will infect your computer... yada yada"

    I think you get the drift, any "fix" for this ?

    Same here. Doesn't happen on just any page though. Only on some. This is one of the pages that gives me this error: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...results/page23

    Here's the English version of the warning:

    Danger: Malware Ahead!
    Google Chrome has blocked access to this page on www.xtremesystems.org.
    Content from www.firegoon.com, a known malware distributor, has been inserted into this web page. Visiting this page now is very likely to infect your computer with malware.
    Malware is malicious software that causes things like identity theft, financial loss, and permanent file deletion.

    I don't get this message when I open the page you linked, however I've seen this message before on another site and I'm on FF.

    I think this is a Chrome only mistake.

    This was happening to MechWarrior online forums today also.
    It happened to me there on Win 8 IE10, Chrome and FF. There was an email going around also that was spoofed from MWO.

    Something from that email came across but Defender caught it... I think.
