blink-boards hosting malware site content?
« on: July 21, 2010, 04:22:06 AM »
Dunno if it's someones sig or avatar or something, but quite frequently I keep getting a notification from chrome about the blink boards, (or threads) I go into. Here's the message, any thoughts?

"The website at www.blink-182online.com contains elements from the site icons.iconator.com, which appears to host malware – software that can hurt your computer or otherwise operate without your consent. Just visiting a site that contains malware can infect your computer.

Firstly, I suggest installing the AdBlock extension for Chrome if you haven't already.
I'm pretty certain this is going to be an ad that is on the site.

Yeah this only happens to me in the blink general discussion but it's annoying as hell.

You should have posted this in FAQ and Forum Support, so that ryan could actually see it.

Luckily, im here to do that for you. Like dean said, its probably just one of the ads

I can't find anything about iconator.com in the list of ads being shown, can you guys post a screen shot of whatever ad is showing next time you get that warning?

Hey guys, I've worked out that it was juice182's avatar that was firing off the malware warning. I've removed it and uploaded it elsewhere so all should be good now.
