    I received a warning from Google ......

    I was using Safari and got a warning when I visited a URL.

    I tried with Chrome and got a similar warning, viz:-

    http://i36.tinypic.com/347wjld.jpg

    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything untoward at
    xxx.uncoached.com ?

    Here is some extra info provided by Google:

    http://google.com/safebrowsing/diagn...d.com&hl=en-us

    If you're not going to give us the exact url that spawned the warning,
    then why bother posting?

    It's a waste of time if we don't have the exact URL so we can grab a
    sample of the malware.

    Isn't it xxx.uncoached.com as stated in the warning jpg and also stated by
    BD in his post?

    Not necessarily, the "uncoached" site may have been vulnerable at one
    time to an exploit to redirect visitors to another site that indeed
    hosts malware. If Virus Guy wants a malware sample he would have to
    visit the malware server site not a redirection exploit site that might
    not be continuing to redirect users. Sometimes it is an advertisement on
    an otherwise legit site that gets a site marked as suspicious.

    This part is interesting:

    "Just visiting a site that hosts malware can infect your computer". I
    suspect that ASCII will find that it *cannot* infect *his* computer -
    thus making that statement blatantly false.

    Perhaps they meant "may" instead of "can" - what do you think?

    I have never experienced an exploit at a site, but in lieu of finding
    some exploitable software these malware servers that you get routed to
    can also serve human nature exploits. The human nature exploits are
    obvious and would IMO constitute an *experience*. However, I'm not too
    sure a user would even notice when such a site is able to exploit
    software. A user may not *experience* any untoward behavior at a
    compromised site or at the actual malware server site.

    Hmmm - here they say *may* infect... I suppose that that means that the
    two words mean exactly the same thing now. \

    Maybe they did!

    Exactly so! Here's a copy of email correspondence for digestion!

    I have never had an axe to grind with you, Mark, so am slightly
    uncertain exactly why you have taken your current stance - but accept
    that it is your prerogative to say 'no'.

    Notwithstanding that, I feel that I should point out a discovery I have
    made.

    Using the *Google Chrome Browser* I visited your BB and, at this
    particular URL received this warning

    http://i33.tinypic.com/2573teb.jpg
    hxxp://www.mindzon.com/lounge/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=133

    You know far more about computing than I ever will. If you experiment
    with Google Chrome you will note that if you change *133* to 132 or 134
    there is *no* similar warning. It relates simply to the thread started
    by Roy C.

    Perhaps this matter is of little significance but I'd be interested in
    your view.

    Mark will never let you post there on his site so do not even keep on trying.

    You know the story Burn me once ,Shame on me. Burn me twice ,you are gone. And you
    keep showing the same continuously to this day with the exception of scorched -
    earth. It will not be long there either..

    Banned by Ahuma,Annex,Doganet, 6 other servers. And you do not know why? LOL. You
    are a Troll and a complete idiot
