I use IE for hours every day, seems fine to me.
I wouldn’t install Chrome - or any other executable from Google - on my computer for love or money.

Does that particular page display advertising?
On occasion something in the ad stream will trigger
virus warnings.
Also on occasion sites ARE hacked and implanted with malware.
To: Lazamataz
I use Chrome also and got the same “Danger: Malware Ahead” warning you got at www.secretsofthefed.com. I too abandoned IE for Chrome.

Forgot to add: running on linux on both machines as well, so perhaps that has helped with the lack of malware warnings when I tested both sites. Just FYI.

There’s a confirmation.
Most of the posts on this thread would be “I’m not seeing that” because those that see it happening, some percentage of those would give up trying to come here (for some period of time).

Oh: One question: Did you get the Malware warning trying to come here? That’s where I got it.

Why would anyone claiming to be conservative use anything GOOGLE related?

Just for you. Stop looking at porn, getting your computer infected and blaming chrome.
To: Lazamataz
Can’t you turn off the warnings? Or set the trust level higher?....................

Just for you. Stop looking at porn, getting your computer infected and blaming chrome.Happens at work too, where various authorities make sure things are malware and virus-free. Furthermore, I've had two confirmations from other people it is happening to them, one privately and one on this thread.
Just for you: Try again.

Obviously I can get on Free Republic. However, I get (and JUST got another) Malware warning/block.

I use Chrome and I got that message a time or two... but it was at least 6 months ago. Haven’t seen it while going to FR in a long long time.

This is somewhat old news, and it is the reason I turned off all website blocking on whatever program I was using long ago.
Most of these systems depend on user reports. As a consequence liberal scum get together and keep reporting websites they don’t like. You should see how many firearms related sites produce these same kinds of ‘warnings.’
I’d rather take my changes than have a bunch of liberal F-heads tell me where I can and can’t go.
