RE:”Attackers currently on www.freerepublic.com might attempt to install dangerous programs on your computer that steal or delete your information (for example, photos, passwords, messages, and credit cards).”

Yep, Freepers get pretty upset when their guy goes down in a poll.

It just blocked this page after I posted. I clicked the ignore this and then at the top that it was okay. It then opened a page for Stop Badware.

“I think it may be google.”

I got a page that said that a group called “Stop Badware” supplies a blacklist to Google and Firefox. This is politically motivated.

I am using Safari on my iMac and haven’t experienced any of this garbage.

Are you folks sure that you’re logged on? ;>)

I quit FireFox a couple years ago when they fired their founder for supporting Biblical marriage.

Chrome, Opera, even IE is better.

I know Chrome is a google product, but at least you know where they are coming from. The fascists at FireFox ruined a guy explicitly for supporting true marriage.

Just got it twice on Firefox. Maybe it’s God telling me I really need to get off FR and back to work?

Here is the message I'm getting...

It's apparently from Mozilla/FireFox.
