Just today, my Firefox is giving me a warning message about the Fanforce boards having malicious software. I suppose it could be a glitch with a Firefox upgrade, but I've never seen it before. Has anyone else run into this?
The message is:
Reported Attack Page!
This web page at boards.theforce.net has been reported as an attack page and has been blocked based on your security preferences.
Attack pages try to install programs that steal private information, use your computer to attack others, or damage your system.
Some attack pages intentionally distribute harmful software, but many are compromised without the knowledge or permission of their owners.

I don't go to FanForce boards that often (more of a Rebelscum gal) so I can't say anything. But I use Firefox all the time and haven't had a problem
EDIT: According to Twitter, there was a problem: "Google has flagged boards.theforce.net as a known attack site. We are currently working with IGN to fix the problem."

It took only a couple of days for them to clear up the problem. Now they just have to move their boards ..... which they've been talking about for 6 months. Their address will stay the same though; just change host servers.
