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.

Lillith signature and no error on 4th page. Weird. It's a random error or something?
Oh i just noticed that chrome hidden the "Dangerous" symbol. no https, lame.

She rehosted her sig pic on Imgur. The dangerous symbol is probably there because it was hosted on Filetrip before and it's already marked the page. Something like that.

xD hahaha! 10/10

One thought I've had :
When coming into a thread with a signature image uploaded to filetrip, I got the red screen and it warned about filetrip (not gbatemp). Now, if it would be ads that were deceptive, shouldn't it warn for whatever server that ad is hosted on instead?
Or is it fine to host deceptive ads, as long as it's only others who show them?

Hmm...

It's an issue with FileTrip itself being flagged, not the ads server.

If filetrip is used for hosting pirated files etc then of course its going to get flagged and blocked.

What about that ISO site or that ticket site? Also, as far as I know, hosting copyrighted files on FileTrip is strictly prohibited, as it is a part of the GBAtemp Network.

That's what I was thinking was happening, which is why I made another thread to test a few different theories. The other thread wasn't effected post Imgur signature, but the second I posted my filetrip hosted signature, the thread was flagged.
I am not totally sure what's going with filetrip at the moment, but I have been digging around at least trying to help Costello find the cause.
 
eww your all on windows 10.

The issue is that Google has flagged all of FileTrip for phishing. Contact Google, maybe they can help.
 
maybe this is a issue for windows 8+ im running windows 7 no deceptive site but on my windows 8 it said gbatemp is a deceptive site

That's most likely the only way for us to get a solid answer.
Right now I am just testing a few different things. I got reports that users were still getting red screens on pages that I commented on, even after I switched my sig's source. So I am trying to see if that is a local issue or not.
