You are correct, it does. I really don't like that at all because even if you follow all of their links their own report says..."no, its fine".
I'm not sure if you can even talk to a real person at google.

I searched for information on this and it seems like it happened to A LOT of websites. Google's definitive answer on if the site is safe or not it at this link.

The also have other tests you can run against the site, anyone can do it. They all say the site is fine and I'm hoping whatever Google did will clear itself on their next data refresh.
I am 99.9% sure the site is not infected in any way and they say you can turn off this notification in Chrome by going "under the hood" (whatever that means).
So I will keep an eye on it, please keep reporting instances. Seems like google screwed up and people can probably avoid the whole thing by using Bing or Yahoo for a while if they are browsing from a search engine.

Are any members here getting the 'malware' warning when they are actually logged in and browsing the site, or is it only when attempting to click through a Google search result?
about a minute ago the site refused to post my quick reply in the mods forum, under some security pretext which I immediately forgot because of being panic-stricken. I was able to post after refreshing the page, though
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, via Chrome, AT WORK.

It is the browser you guys, it is really sensitive to something the site is doing but we are not hacked.
The link above shows how Google officially feels about he site and if you search the phrase the warning brings up, it happened to all kinds of sites that are browsed through google.

Yeah, but it's quite annoying.
What if Google consider you (in the SERPs) as dangerous?
A few people could decide to do not come...

I understand that and it is pissing me off no end but I can't actually call google.
They have a data refresh about every ten days and I'm hoping it will be over after that. And Chrome can go f**K itself.

Regarding those malware warnings - I've got them also. I use IE8 and both McAfee and PC Tools Spyware Doctor. McAfee never gives me warnings but Spyware Dr. does. So I ran a test.
I scanned and came out clean with McAfee.
I scanned with Spyware Dr. and cleaned out all the "infections" which were just low priority cookies.
I opened my browser to my (yahoo) home page and scanned with Spyware Dr. again - came out clean.
I logged into this site, opened one random thread *this one* and logged off and closed my browser and ran Spyware Dr. again.
Found and removed one "infection" - apmebf.com cookie. It was flagged as "Known_bad_site, Threat_level: low"
I googled it later and the reviews are mixed, to say the least!
Anyway, with a clean system again, I opened my browser and set the security level to HIGH (Tools/options/security/internet zone).
I then logged back into this site and opened the same thread, logged off and ran the scan again. It came out clean! The only problem with a HIGH security setting - after logging in did not automatically redirect me and when trying to post I had the same smiley problem John mentions above. Also could not log into Facebook or a few other sites. So I set my Internet Zone security back to MEDIUM HIGH.
As a test I came back here and logged in, opened this thread, logged out and scanned again and got the same cookie.
I don't think it is dangerous but a lot of spyware and antivirus software seems to think it could be or could be easily hacked.
.....my 2 centavos...
Wow! Thanks for that test man, that gives me all kinds of info I can use.

I am finding some very interesting stuff on that. Seems we may have an image here this is hosted on that site. I may have to create a site wide announcement to see if anyone visits that apmebf.com

Delete the image?
That would be my suggestion.

I linked to the home page and this time it actually listed all the problem images. As it's a generated page I don't think I can link to it, but it's basically a bunch of jpgs! I suspect, as Matt has said, it's Google being finicky though.
For your information, these are the images listed:

Am I the only one getting warned about malware whenever I visit the forums? It's been happening consistently for a couple of days now.

What OS/firewall/antivirus?
This is being discussed in the Technical questions about the site
thread.
Interesting. Web nanny's are on high.
I'm still working really hard to figure this out everyone. I have all kinds of information and may need to take the site off line for a few hours on Friday morning. Not sure about that yet.
I will make a banner to announce it if I do.

I concur.
