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...

Good Morning!

23.0.1522.77 - Opera is up to date

I did the search for “FreeRepublic WH Responds to Petition to Demand Release of Marine Held in Mexico” using both Bing and Google.

Bing brings me right to the thread.

Google blocks the thread, forcing the user to manually copy the address and go.

As DB was pointing out, and another poster pointed out, there was something offending in that thread, probably an image linked from a bad site, therefore Google flagged our site as bad.

I tried another article: BORDER PATROL AGENT FIRES AT ARMED MILITIA MEMBER. Bing didn’t find it, but Google allowed it to be opened without issue.
