Right now, 2008-10-26, I am getting this with Firefox 3 and warcraftrealms.com:

I got that message myself. I think someone reported this to google without basis and google bought it hook, line, & sinker.

It's doing it to me as well. I'm not entirely sure I am going to keep coming here unless I get some sort of explanation. I've set a bit of dedication into keeping my computer safe, don't wanna get anything now. What's up?

Also: Even if we're clean it's annoying to be forced to click "ignore this warning" every time I change pages and I don't want to use IE. So when will this all be over with?

Rollie is working on it and will find out what happened.

Thanks mate. Normally I'd do something about it myself, but I think only the webmaster of a site can request it with Google.

And now I got a warning about the site when visiting it with Google Chrome. I guess someone added it to the list of unsafe domains again?

Actually it is unsafe atm as some of the advertising on the site actually contains viruses.
