There's a modaco site issue area for reports like this. How do you think the staff are going to find this here?

[krishang3]

I get the same thing from google. Do you think that they don't like us modifying and changing the rom's ?

[Kelthar]

Since google bots randomly browse pages and download attachments (I believe), it might've downloaded an intrusive bootloader or root unlocker, hence causing the trojan warning.

Saying this since every unlocker I've downloaded had a trojan warning (it does have a pretty trojan-like behaviour, gaining control of a device).

It also gets annoying because I browse the site and open threads in tabs...

Hi
Since this morning I cannot access Modaco from either Chrome or Firefox on my desktop, I just get a message saying the site is bloccked due to malware? (see attached).
Posting this via internet explorer.

Press 'Ignore this warning' - worked for me on Firefox

[UrbanFox2]

Same here, pain in the ar err  rear

[PaulOBrien]

We've submitted the site for re-evaluation after removing a couple of suspicious posts and disabling an advertiser I suspect could be serving Malware. Apologies for the inconvenience!

Still showing same warning to me.

[vice17]

google chrome gave me the same warning since today

[alpine101]

I see this is now fixed, but it's a scarey reminder of just how much Google controls the internet. I use Firefox, and until this, I never realised that Mozilla are dependent on Google's blacklisting system which appears to be built in to the browser, even on direct bookmarked links. Any ideas on how one eliminates this, other than just unclicking the option to check sites? There are no alternative sources?

[melodystyle2003]

I 've faced same situation. Now looks to be solved somehow.

[krishang3]

I haven't checked today from chrome. I hope its working now.. the prompt just annoys me....and on chrome I didn't see any option to not display that window the next time I open it...

[pee_bee]

Hi,

Is the Malware problem still being investigated or have I missed a fix for it???

I'm still getting the red 'reported attack page' every time i come on the site.Not straight away,just at some random time when browsing the site,usually after using the back page arrow.
More worryingly i got a 'your computer is infected' bogus scare page with the assosiated 'click here to fix it' bullshit scam this morning.Stupidly,i closed the browser before noting where the scam link redirected too.If it happens again i'll try and get more info for you.

Perhaps clearing your cache & cookies will help with the warning coming up.
