Google Chrome malware warning for TPU?

Aleksander · Jan 29, 2013, 05:41 PM

Seriously, this was amazing! Google, you just lost reputation

But it is not tech, it is just a post inside a thread, don't get scared!

Crap Daddy · Jan 29, 2013, 05:42 PM

Same with me. What's happening?
Happens when I click on the news with Office 365.

TheMailMan78 · Jan 29, 2013, 05:43 PM

No problem with IE. Chrome maybe?

JNUKZ · Jan 29, 2013, 05:44 PM

No problem with FF.

de.das.dude · Jan 29, 2013, 05:45 PM

opera fine too.

sneekypeet · Jan 29, 2013, 05:46 PM

I got it via chrome too, shows it is something to do with the canard links in sigs.

qubit · Jan 29, 2013, 05:47 PM

All fine with me on Firefox.

DarkOCean · Jan 29, 2013, 05:47 PM

same thing with chrome for me works fine with IE though.

Darkleoco · Jan 29, 2013, 05:47 PM

I have had this pop up in other places as well today not just TPU so it is just a generic Chrome issue I would assume.

TheMailMan78 · Jan 29, 2013, 05:48 PM

IE 10 is more secure anyway.

Google has flagged the CPU-Z validation site as malware (valid.canardpc.com).

Since people have CPU-Z validations in their signatures, showing here on the forums, it triggers the malware alert.

I removed all signatures that contained such images and also disabled new ones to be created for that site.

Whos the smart ass who flagged it? Also will the sigs be back?
