Title: Coinurl- Malware?
Post by: HollowIP on July 25, 2013, 11:23:19 AM
Normally I would not notice this, but I use coinchat to discuss bitcoin stuff (and other things) and there are a few coinurl ads on there. Randomly the site picked up 'malware ahead: coinurl'

So I went and checked it out, and apparently google has flagged coinurl for malware now? (Im using chrome btw)
If so, awesome! I hate coinurl.

we are aware of this and there was 1 bad link out of the millions of links on our site.  we are waiting on google to review our site again, should only take a couple of hours. 

to prevent this in the future we are going to move all interstitial ads to the cur.lv domain somehow.

This is a big issue!

My Top Bitcoin Sites is also marked as malware because of CoinURL....I've just disabled it for now!
