We are malware!..........

If you use multiple browers on Windows, adding the site to your hosts file seems to help as well.
Nope, left the caps on. Remembering.
Just happened to me for the first time right now on another thread. Using Pale Moon, but it also happened on Opera and FireFox.

Ten years ago when I last worked for the feral gummint Barracuda would not let me open FreeRepublic labeling it “criminal conspiracy”. That was when “W” was in office!
I think our guesses about Google vs. FR are probably closer to the mark.
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
Nice snag there.
This is the first time I’ve seen this problem.
Jim & John have added Google Analytics to the site for their purposes.
Thanks for the info guess I will unblock it.
“Did someone leave the Italians on?”
Ha - those were the days - eh?
Of course most of the “youngsters” around here will scratch their heads wondering why “all your Italians are belong to us” would be even remotely funny...
I am experiencing this problem for the first time this morning. I have an older Mac running either Safari 5.0.6 or Firefox 3.6.28. For now I am simply selecting the ignore warning button on Safari. The choice to ignore the warning on Firefox seems to be disabled.
Department of Defense sees us as anti-Semitic? That's what you're saying?
Fine except for any of the billion or so Internet users who happen to run across www.freerepublic.com and now associate it with "danger."
As long as StopBadware Clearinghouse, Google, ThreatTrack Security, NSFocus, etc. make it easy as I understand it to
Report BadwareIf you have encountered a badware URL, you can report it to StopBadware's community. StopBadware does NOT curate [oversee] or maintain a list of bad sites, and reporting a URL via this form does NOT mean the URL will be added to a list of bad sites maintained by any other company. A community report is merely a record that an Internet user believes badware was present on a given URL at a given time. This form is open to all who wish to use it, regardless of technical skill level.
Community reports will be included in our Badware Website Clearinghouse. They may be shared with third parties or used in a variety of other ways to help fight badware . . . .

“It’s political, Jim...”

“The Left’s War on Comment Sections”
“...Another study found that reading assertive, aggressive comments could actually sway the opinions of readers. “Don’t read the comments,” warned Ars Technica, “they can make you mistrust real experts.”
It’s a piece of advice that captures the war on comments sections perfectly. Having initially cheered on the death of the “gatekeepers of information,” cultural elites are now scrambling to reinstall those barriers. Too late, they have discovered that people don’t always agree with them – and now they want to push that disagreement into the wilderness of the internet...”

I’d love to turn the malware detect off but I’m using a work computer. So, I’ll just live with it for now.
StopBadware Clearinghouse search results listed above indicate that data provided to StopBadware is why Free Republic is being blacklisted.
What are StopBadware’s data sources?
Regardless who my question is why threads that have been safe and static for months (years?) are now listed as caches of malware?
I do not care that I personally can simply turn off the warning.
I am more concerned about the impact on FR.
