Anyone else with Chrome getting a warning from the Escapist?

[TrilbyUK]

No problems here. I use Chrome for Ubuntu Linux for my general web browsing, including the Escapist.

Nope, never had any with Chrome. Nor Firefox. Nor the 5 minutes I used IE.

I use Google Chrome for Mac and whenever I connect to the Escapist, I get a warning message saying that this site may harm my computer. I've never had this problem before, it just started happening recently.

Is anyone else using Chrome getting the same message?

How are you calling the site? I don't use Chrome, but in the past I've noticed with some websites if I just called right into the forums (by a favorites tag) or something like that it would set off warnings, where if I called in to the home page and then when to the forums it would be fine.

Why this is I have no idea (not all that computer literate nowadays), but I have noticed it.

Perhaps it's the way one of the ads here is working isn't liked when you call a page displaying it directly or something. That's a wild guess though.

I appreciate your help mate, but I fixed it. I just had to clear the cache.

This website can be harmful. I'm about to come up on two years of visiting this website at least once a week and I just can't stop...

I've actually seen a few threads about this. Quite a curious case indeed.

Yeah, I got a warning saying: "Psssst, they're secretly evil. Also, Eric says to close your curtains." Does anybody know what it means?

EDIT: Thanks to NewClassic, I have sorted the problem. I just needed to clear my cache out. Thanks to all who posted.

Wow I was actually considering making a thread on this cause it was starting to concern me. I got it a lot last week but haven't had it in a couple days. Weird...
