I have hit Droidforims multiple times daily for the past few weeks and have not had any problems. Today for the first time when I direct Chrome to come here it says "Warning: Visiting this site may harm your computer." It says this site contains elements from centiyo.com, which hosts malware.

Anything to worry about?

Mine said the same thing this morning. I have advised the rest of the Staff about it. We will try to remedy this ASAP !!!!

I am personally using a different browser for the time being.

Anyone else having this problem, feel free to chime in here too. I'd like to see how widespread this is.

Droids web browser is not getting a warning. The browser I used to report the problem in the thread below was Safari.

The warning messages have now stopped on Safari with my Mac. I'm running a virus scan on the windows side of my Mac. Nothing yet, 96% complete.
