  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Warning: Visiting this site may harm your computer

Guys, this is not related to virus on the person's PC!

It's a warning that usually starts with Google flagging the site as dangerous.

I've created a thread about this regarding the 4K Ninjas website. If REDUser has lots of links to it, that may be the cause, however the diagnosis doesn't mention anything about the 4K Ninjas site.

To get rid of this one needs to register with Google webmaster tools and request a de-flag. I've run into this with a site I hosted a forum. Forums engines are sometimes vulnerable and allow virus to plant themselves on your domain, quite weird. However, basing myself on the diagnosis, I think the problems are just links to a certain IMGEHACKS site (phishing to look similar to IMAGESHACK).

Here's the first warning:



And here's the detailed diagnosis:

And here's the thread I created about 4K Ninjas:

As I stated a few posts ago, I'm pretty sure I have identified all content that has caused this flag, removed it, and have submitted to google for review... all's we can do is wait for the results of that and go from there...
 
fyi, internet explorer doesn't do the annoying warning every time you click something. you can also disable it in firefox, and i would guess in safari as well.
 
Paul's right in re Firefox, go to "tools-options-security" and uncheck "block attack site warnings".
 
I can now say with 99.99% certainty that the flagged content was removed from this site. So, I am waiting for the review process...

Note: I am 99.99% certain that the potentially harmful content that was on reduser has been removed... the google warning will still continue until the review process is complete, however, and confirms this fact... I am not 100%, but very nearly certain.
 
Depends upon who is being offended. If it was Sony, Panasonic, or Arri, it could be a good long while before REDUser is "well" again.

Thank you Jason.

If you want to turn the warning off on Firefox:
Tools > Options > Security > Un-check "Block Reported Attack Sites"

Then when Jason lets us know things are back to normal on this thread (please Jason) you can just go back and turn it back on... Not really a big deal unless you plan on going to evil sites.

This problem and so many others could be prevented if we had a genuine real names policy and a probation period before users could freely post. Other professional forums do this and they benefit from a very high signal to noise ratio.

Good shooting and best regards,

this issue did not have to do with real names, or someone posting a bad link on the site, or spammers....

The other problem is that even if you disable the "fraudulent" warning in safari, if you click though a google search, google itself will refuse to link you though the reduser. So it's not just the browser that is refusing connections, but any google linked search as well.

Warning... visiting this site may decrease all other camera company's revenues.

The conspiracy theorist in me says this was planned. Right in the middle of "HDR weekend"..?

Just sayin'
 
Until I disabled the warning in Safari, I could not log in.
 
Yeah, I'm getting it in Firefox on my Mac Pro.

Could this be industrial sabotage? lol It's really annoying.
