I also get that message if I use your link, however if I do a search and go through the sites interface I have no problems.
Could be you have a problem?

Re: Malware Warning
 

No, you say you get the same problem!

I started at page 1 of the thread and scrolled through the pages, they were OK apart from that one. Scrolling from either end of the thread gave the same error.

It could be that someone on that page used a smilie from planetsmilies.net and Chrome flagged that up as an error. Could be Google/Chrome is being overcautious, are you using Chrome?

In any event I didn't open the page.

Re: Malware Warning
 

You are correct, Page 5, one of Katex's posts has a link, as you suggest.
:alright:

Re: Malware Warning
 

If you Google "planetsmilies.net" there's loads of malware warnings. Perhaps a mod could edit the post to remove the link and run a virus check?

Re: Malware Warning

Re: Malware Warning
 

Thanks

Re: Malware Warning
 

Ive had this before. I think this is a chrome related detection.

The AVG url scanner says "No active malware was reported recently by users anywhere on this website. (updated Jan 10, 2015)" however Google Safebrowsing says it is a malware site. Possibly just because its a smiley site and they are widely known for being malware/virus sites

Re: Malware Warning
 

Both Chrome and IE warn you when they think a site is iffy, I don't know it Firefox does

Re: Malware Warning

Re: Malware Warning

Re: Malware Warning
 

It appears to be working ok for me. Looks like it's a problem with your computer Walter

Re: Malware Warning
 

Dang, he gets all the fun :)

Although I'm not sure what he means about rossendaleonline, that is still there and does not send my pc loop either.

Perhaps Walter need to use Malwarebytes, spywareblaster, superantispyware and some of the other good reputation apps.
