Yeah, I've been getting malware warnings on Chrome from various addresses when loading pages here.

It's amazing that I've never had any warnings on adult sites, yet this is like the third time it's happened on RGM.

Whenever I stay on the overview page of our Knicks forum I get redirected after 5-10 seconds. Same thing happens on the overview page of this support forum. The only way to prevent this, is by entering a thread. I have these problems, when using my PC (Windoes Vista 32bit and Internet explorer 9.something). Right now I am on my MacBook Pro using Safari. Everything is fine there.

I'm having major problems as well. Every time I go to RealGM, I get re-directed to other sites. Is this problem going to be fixed? I don't want to only go on RealGM with my iPhone. Bad timing for something like this too with the season just around the corner.

Avast is reporting Malicious URL and Trojan whenever I try to browse any realgm page.

Same problem for me too. For sub boards I frequent, it doesnt happen on the Packers or Brewers board, but on the Bucks or Media Lounge boards I get a lot of warnings.

Not fully sure if this is the right thread for this question, but here goes.

I keep on getting (repeatedly, as in, like, 10 times a minute) this red box pop-up thing when I come to realgm that says: MALICIOUS URL BLOCKED
avast! Network Shield has blocked a harmful site.
Object:
Infection: URL:Mal
Process:

I didn't include what the Process actually said because it shows some personal computer data information next to it, and the Object changes every time the box pops up. Why do I keep getting this? It started in the last two days or so, and I never got it before. I'm using Google Chrome by the way.

Edit: Apparently other people do have the same or similar problems in this thread. Apologies.

Seems like the site was attacked XSS style. If disabling Javascript helped then it was likely that the web developers left some holes in their code.

I'm still getting malware redirections. Thankfully avast is blocking it.

Decided to see if the problem was fixed...nope. Avast just blocked a ton of trojan horse viruses. Thanks realgm. I'm scared to get on here now.

We have figured out the issue and quickly working to resolve it.

The issue isn't advertising related.

I'll be back with an update once we have it removed.
