Tried to go to unsolved.com today - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hops3098 · 03-23-2015, 03:07 PM

I use Google Chrome and yes its updated.

I don't actually use the official UM website much, but I was going to go there for a minute today and received the "red screen of death" saying unsolved.com has been flagged for phishing attempts recently and it was not recommended by google that I proceed.

Anyone else see this or know anything about it? I'm wondering if they had problems in the comments sections of cases. I seem to remember the comment section had some rudimentary safeguard but the comments posted there were usually pretty banal at best.

It worked for me fine just now. I have a Mac and use a browser some sites reject as outdated.

The website is up. I'm using Windows 8.1 (Internet Explorer).

I have chrome and was unable to duplicate your results. It sounds more like it was your antivirus flagging it.

Although, I think this can happen to sites when people sign up for their newsletters then decide to flag them as spam when they get tired of getting them instead actually of unsubscribing.

I can confirm I had the same "phishing site" experience earlier and did not have it just now with Chrome. Unsolved.com must have cleared up whatever was causing google to classify it as such. It could have been compromised briefly and resolved.

what is up with the comments on the case articles? it looks like only the titles are shown; no content. Anyone else seeing the same?
