"Deceptive Site Ahead"

[PrincessLillie]

So, I was casually browsing GBAtemp, and suddenly this pops up:

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.

 

[PrincessLillie]

It doesn't happen in Chromium and Chrome Canary. Just tested that.

Try the standard version.

Try the standard version.

That's what I posted here since it only affects std version.

A section listing what we know has been added to the post. Check that out before posting stuff about it

Huh. Never got that.
It's normal for me. Just ignore that error or reinstall chrome since it sometimes gets retarded.
[Also, ew cortana]

hey, cortana can be useful...as a quick searchbar, that's it

Don't want to turn this into "To cortana or not to use cortana" thread but you can also quickly search without Cortana.
Cortana also wastes some bit of CPU and memory.

Back in Windows XP, we called the start button start, and the search function search. Funny, huh?

It seems that all of FileTrip is blocked due to "phishing"

GBAtemp: turning minor problems into serious discussions

I get this every now and then on random pages, but usually a refresh gets rid of it. Might it be an advert possibly?

Nah, it's Chrome's built-in "phishing detection". It's a false positive on FileTrip.

Interesting. It could be. Or, maybe they're fixing the problem

I await the day when I can replace Cortana with Google Assistant.

It's happened over many months. Random over many months/years. Always filetrip, I know that. I figured it was a fucked advert or something and just refreshed. Always seemed to work. *shrugs* not much more I can give than that

 

[smileyhead]

...aaand yup. can confirm (probably for the hundredth time in this thread) the problem on Chrome Stable (Desktop x64)

Too much osu, excuse me.

If you follow a link to a GBAtemp thread from that Chaos site, it results in that red screen warning. Only too be expected really, as my Malwarebytes web protection, and 2 other pop-up blockers light up like a xmas tree over there.
