So, I was casually browsing GBAtemp, and suddenly this pops up:
upload_2017-10-6_13-29-3.png


What We Know
This error only appears on the normal desktop version of Chrome.
This happens on Windows, Linux, and Mac
All of FileTrip is blocked because of "phishing"
FileTrip results are omitted from Google search, but not other search engines
GBAtemp.net only gets this warning on specific posts, such as the "Starfox 2 already dumped, and it sucks" thread.

Then something tells me this might be local. If you got a red screen before on this thread, do you still get them now?
If I have had a red screen, it just keeps saying "Dangerous" in the address bar. But since you switched to Imgur, I've had no issue. No, I don't keep getting them if I had them before. It's directly linked to FileTrip, not GBAtemp or anything local.

Thank you! ^-^ That helps quite a bit!

the review request is still marked as "being processed" in the google admin console, so it's going to take a little while longer before all the warnings are lifted
Side note, I was able to prove that issues related this thread and several others was due to my signature being hosted on filetrip. So I can safely safe there shouldn't be red screens, until an image/file on that page is being hosted by filetrip

I see that our "severe site issue" has been lifted on Google webmaster tools so hopefully nobody will be getting red screens now.
We will get another ad platform for filetrip, this one has been absolutely awful over the years.
*Now getting dating site ads XD*

Just use the ad platform that GBAtemp uses.
