You may see that CBB was flagged as a malicious code site and will try to stop you from entering here. Spent a few hours trying to determine the cause of this. Figured it out after working with my host server provider. The LG Sciences banner was being delivered via a script from them. Seems something went wrong on their site (can't be sure as I don't have access to their server). So google flagged everything as dangerous and thus you get the message.

The LG sciences banner has been removed, my host confirms CBB is clean and your anti virus will not flag you from anything here. Goes to show you how many things can go wrong eh. I contacted google and they will be reviewing the site shortly. Can take a week or 2 at max.

Wow you would think since they are so quick to jump the gun and label your site as an "attack site" and make it nearly unaccessable they could at least review it a little quicker than that.....

BTW: navigate to options in the tools drop down, click the "security" tab and un-tick "block reported attack sites" to freely navigate the site. Only problem with this is you could potentially be left vulnerable to real "attack sites", so easy on the free porn sites haha. I tried adding it as an exception but it didn't work.

Seeing as the banner ad was trying to execute cmd.exe on the computer I'd say flagging it as a bad site was fairly appropriate.

It's a pain in the ass but when banner ads try to execute programs on my computer I think google is doing us a pretty hefty favour in flagging the site. ironaddicts site got flagged as a result of this ad as well.

Via google or firefox and not your pc anti-virus correct?

Google needs to relook at the site and evaluate it again before it removes the warning. If you're using firefox, they have it integrated with google which will show a message as soon as you come here. But if you run any anti-virus programs on the site, it'll come clean. Godaddy (my server host) ran a scan on the site and confirmed it clean after I removed the banner.

If you're anti-virus is triggering, let me know what it is as all of mine don't trigger.

Here is the diagnostics from google which you should be able to get if you click the diagnostic link or the why was this site blocked button in firefox.

In some cases, third parties can add malicious code to legitimate sites, which would cause us to show the warning message.

I just turned off my security alerts temporarily. Tools -> Options -> Security -> Block Reported Attack Sites. Good as new :)

Careful, don't be going on strange sites unless you got a good anti-virus ;)
Most common attack will be an adobe acrobat reader script on an attack site.

I'll announce it when google checks the site again and removes the warning.

With firefox I am still getting the warning. It also mentions that LG has acted as an intermediate in infecting 3 sites.

It's fixed. Those using firefox may still get the message as the page was cached. It'll update soon and the message will disappear.

My firefox just cleared up and is not giving the message anymore so things should be back to normal soon.
