Gents? As best as I can tell, this is a function of Firefox working in conjunction with Google. Best get it checked out.
Thank you

It's a Google function and thank goodness for it. I received an automated email from Google earlier today that there was malicious code on some of our website pages. Not sure if that email itself was spam, Tomas looked into it and confirmed the email was real and our site did get hit by malicious activity.
Tonight, Tomas has restored the entire website including forum, which is the likely source of the initial infestation, and the site now appears to be clean. Part of the procedure in this scenario is that Google has to rescan our site before it will remove that warning, Tomas has submitted the request already and hopefully soon we will be cleared.
As a precaution, please run a virus and malware scan on your systems. Tomas' system and one of my computers came back completely clean, another of my computers has not completed its scan but has found some trojans though I believe it may have been infested prior to viewing the website during the period it was insecure.

Thanks for jumping on this guys. I did full scan with malwarebytes and came up clean as well.

The site got hit yesterday by a redirect attack that caused some pages to load a potential Trojan. Google immediately flagged it for us and I restored the complete site to a clean backup as well as researching and plugging some potential vulnerabilities. As of this morning Google has confirmed that the site is clean and Chrome no longer flags it.
The Trojan that was potentially loaded was confirmed to be malicious at least on Windows XP machines. I ran a complete scan last night on my Win7 box and it was clean. I would recommend anyone who visited the site any time during the last two days to scan their machines!
Unfortunately this is the world we live in so our apologies for the inconvenience. Hopefully no one got infected!

My Win7 machine didn't have anything found on it either. I'm glad I sent that report to Google after Chrome said it found something amiss, because I didn't believe it at the time.
