If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Been getting the same warnings on FF since this morning too. Just got it just now upon returning to work. You can give feedback stating that the site is safe, so do that via the button.

    Checking random pages here seems all clean for now :)

    I submitted the URL to Comodo Site Inspector: results are here:
    http://siteinspector.comodo.com/public/reports/5967786

    Blacklisted site due to suspicious activity, but no specific results from that link.

    Let's see how it goes.

    No AVG pops as of coming on Phun just now. According to AVG this 'virus' is #5 with a bullet to the top right now worldwide.

    One good thing is that if you ARE getting the pops from your anti-virus, it means that it's being properly blocked from your personal PC and only the site and its servers are involved.

    we are still trying to get a grip of the situation. There are more to it than simple malware.

    We believe that the risk no longer exists.

    We're looking into longer term site security issues - how was this done, and how can we prevent it in future - but code that was maliciously injected has been removed.

    However, somewhat naturally it takes a while for the reporting bodies to confirm for themselves the removal of a risk, so warnings/reports/blocks will continue until they all do.

    Warning is still there ... just checked now ... will probably take a few weeks (at best). :mad:

    Other possibilities ...

    a) malware from embedded video link(s) that wants to install a codec
    b) malware from sig with creative link (html) redirection
    c) malware from external link not removed by mod
    d) some of the above, all of the above

    Personally, not concerned since I have a sandbox machine designed to be infected and restored every other day. This problem will however affect overall viewership and influx of potential talent/ posters.

    Yeah, it will show these warning until ol' mighty Google decides to review our site again and remove the warning. I've submitted a request to be reviewed a couple of hours ago (wanted to be sure no shit was left somewhere, as the guy tried his best to put the code into all sorts of locations), now we're just waiting for Google to come back and hopefully remove the warnings.

    @iCeleb, it usually takes just a few hours for Google to review a site. A couple of weeks would destroy most of the websites. Even the current method is a pain in the ass...but like I said, it takes a few hours, not days.

    I haven't got one in Opera either. And I know that it does this too, as I just got the warning two days ago on a different site.
