Warning received...

Post by Snake Man » Sat Jan 18, 2014 4:35 am

I got this pop up warning regarding the website as being unsafe

Perhaps we have been hacked ??

I'm not seeing anything... Google hasn't marked the site as unsafe which it would do for the entire domain if something is amiss... I use chrome as well so it'd alert me. Can you take a screenshot? That seems weird that it's only on that page.

I don't know how to do a screenshot. It was a bright red screen with a warning that the site was unsafe, and giving several choices. One was to return to my homepage, one was to proceed, but not recommended, another was a link to other options. One of the other options was "I don't thinnk this page is unsafe", which I clicked on. But in case there was an actual issue I reported it to you, and explored no further. I got the same warning regarding several of our pages. The warning will not come up today. I think it came from Microsoft as part of their security program, but I'm not sure. Perhaps a glitch on their end ??

It might be a glitch... my site was hacked once and google flagged the site as unsafe, in the exact same way, because of the hacker code. I went through and removed all the code and had google recheck it and it removed the warning. If you use Chrome (Which I do) you can't bypass that message unless you click on the links like you mentioned. But that hacking was a few years ago, and I'm not getting the warning screens (which I for sure would) so I think it must have been a glitch.
