RickinBaltimore Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I haven't gotten the warning, but I am using Firefox with Ad Block Plus and NoScript, so whatever is causing the malware popup to appear might be blocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Firefox didn't pick up on it - all the people experiencing it thus far have Chrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
