Title: bitcoinchannel.com being flagged by Chrome as containing Malware
Post by: Its About Sharing on May 31, 2013, 01:32:50 PM
This is my (and many of you out there's) favorite Bitcoin news site but I guess that makes it a target of hosting malicious scripts, malware, etc.

Anyway, Just wanted to get this out there. Here are some screen shots just taken.

Maybe someone knows of a quick way of getting this to the owner of the site (who I hope see's this).

I don't have an answer for you and am having no trouble accessing the site with Firefox, however, for the past 2 days or so the main page has been displaying stories from April 29th.  I guess they are having problems with the site. 
I really enjoy that site and hope they get it back up soon.

I noticed the message was just on one page. As new content went up, the message disappeared. But, when I went to the prior page it appeared again. Clearly one of his links had something that got picked up.

I know, for 2 days now, the site is down. Anybody know what is up?

Chrome should be called PRISM Personal Edition.

LOL  :D

Well, it is a suite no?

Microsoft Prism Explorer
Microsoft Prism Outlook
Microsoft Prism 7

FacePrism

Google Prismail

And of note, "Prism" is actually pronounced PRISON

This thread was started a while ago, the problem is now gone. But it was definitely on http://www.thebitcoinchannel.com/ and that is where my screenshots came from (as you can see).
