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.

Got this on Firefox. I went ahead and tried to download something (NTR Debugger). It started the download but then it paused it and gave me a warning saying I should stop because the file might harm my computer...

I'm now getting this error on the damn thread, and after using "I understand the risks" I notice that HTTPS has been disabled on the page. There has to be something getting put on random pages that's dodgy
 
after looking into it more, it seems as though s5.filetrip.net's domain is down, as it has expired. This could be the reason why: sometimes it's being called and since it no longer exists, it acts as though it's a security error, and stops the page from loading. That's my speculation atleast.

Either my computer hates me or I am missing something
Would kindly send me/post the link so I can investigate?
(I am one of the Admins on filetip)
 
I am rather concerned that I am not experiencing this issue on any of my browsers. I will contact Costello on this issue.
No worries. If need be, I can screen shot it. However, every single time, in order to bypass it, https gets disabled, so its possibly something to do with certs.

Thanks, but I can tell people are having an issue. It's just hard to troubleshoot an issue that isn't happening to me.
I forwarded this along to Costello, hopefully he can replicate this issue and properly fix it

To those wondering, I am running Solus Linux, I tested Firefox, Google Chrome, Chromium, Opera, and Vivaldi. I was unable to replicate this issue and able to download a file on all of them.
 
Oh boy, it started happening for the 4th page of this thread too. Tell me, who fucked the page?

Lilith hosts her sig pic on FileTrip. Any thread she posts in will bring the red warning screen of doom lol

We're already well aware ^^

To see it, you have to use Chrome. I've reported it as a false positive to the "report false positives" page :P
Cool! ^_^
Reporting is really the most I can do and seeing only a reporter posting worried me. It's not to undermine her, it's just worrisome that the staff hasn't seen this. I know sometimes these kinds of threads can slide under the raider.
I tried every single browser installed on my laptop, I can't get this to happen to me.

I was not aware of this and have never run into such pages myself.
But I know how to fix it- at least I think I do. It's going to take time though because it requires me to request a review from google

as for why we have been completely removed from the search index? I guess they don't like file sharing sites... or maybe solving those problems will restore us into the index, idk...
