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.

Are these attacks on Free Republic obtained via StopBadware.org and is that were google is getting alerted to add warning to FR links?

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?

Feeds from participating partner companies
• (ESET [an IT security company headquartered in Bratislava, Slovakia],
• Fortinet [provider of fast and secure cyber security solutions],
• Internet Identity,
• Sophos [a security software and hardware company; threat management])
• and research institutions
• One-off reports from independent security researchers
• Reports submitted to StopBadware’s URL reporting form by the general public
• Data from public sources and/or additional sources, as needed

[My emphasis]

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.
