For anyone experiencing this issue, which is likely to be pretty much anyone using Firefox, a temporary workaround is to go to Tools > Options > Security > Uncheck "Block Reported Attack Sites". Site admin needs to file a review request with Google Webmaster Tools...

Google chrome reporting as well.

"New sheriff in town"? I suppose that's you and your 4 posts. Do you even own a Maxima?

And no bull****, I just had a hiccup with my keyboard. About 20 frames @ 60hz, of keystroke deleting and retyping when I was typing the sentence above.

Thanks everybody.

This happened to a couple sites last week, and the end cause was due to some photos posted on the forum, that had been hosted on a site which was hacked. This caused Google to flag our site.

The tech team has been alerted, and hopefully Google will clear the site sometime today.

cheers,
robb

Good to know I'm not the only one who got the error.
I have set Firefox to not block flagged sites.. It's the first time I've ever seen that message on any site before..

Getting the message in Google Chrome as well. I did have a malware issue on my computer about a month ago, not sure if it had anything to do with the site but who knows.

I'm using IE to access the forum and am not getting the Reported Attack Site issue.

Firefox is still getting the alert right now, so I guess IE is a good alternative for now.

Clearly you worked for helpdesk/support somewhere at some point in your life.
