i had this issue as well

[mikeinrichmond]

I just did it using Chrome as well, and it appears to be reporting another site that is linked as 'suspicious'.. Neither Firfox 4 or IE9 report it.

I just ignored it as we have never had a problem on this site, but I will report it to the Admins.. Thanks.

This is a known issue, I'm chatting with Wicked who's gonna let one of the Big Droids know about it this evening.

As I was trying to log in here, this message came up. I told it to proceed, then got another, sterner warning. Anyone know why?
