I'm hesitant to offer advice at this point. A quaking virginal type (that will smack you down).

Perhaps you might consider um... I don't know... getting a frigging clue?

How about you offer up your OS type and browser and build number if you want to gripe about something?

Am I being harshly sarcastic?

At no point did I ask for your “advice” nor did I claim I was having any particular problem that needed solved.

I was simply confirming to the author of this thread’s concern that Google had flagged this site as unsafe. So I provided two links to the warnings and the specific details of the warning directly from Google’s Web site to help identify why other people were seeing these warnings. In addition it narrowed down that Google wasn’t claiming FreeRepublic.com was unsafe, only a specific thread and why.

Any browser and OS would have returned the same links I provided by doing what I did - searching Google for “FreeRepublic WH Responds to Petition to Demand Release of Marine Held in Mexico” and then selecting the first link they provide - it takes you directly to the warning with the option to continue - all via Google’s web site and nothing to do with the browser type or OS.

But you keep on interjecting yourself telling my how stupid I am and smart you are all the while never getting the fundamental point...

One last thing. Firefox had no previous cookies present when I did the Google search. It is configured to erase all the cookies after being closed and I don’t normally use Firefox so there isn’t much of trail there. I only use it for development purposes. So Google had no direct information about my browsing/searches/ads history. They did have the browser headers and my cable modem’s IP address but there are many machines behind my NAT router sharing the same public IP address.
