It's a false positive.

GoldenThroat's avatar comes from a website that google chrome has erroneously put on their malware list. It happens every now and then.

Chrome will probably take it off their list soon (a few days?). In the mean time, you can just press "advanced" and "continue at own risk". There is no harm.

So, does this mean that the Lakers aren't getting Embiid?

This was my avatar for awhile. It would be there then gone.

I asked if it were because it was improper. I got the answer from a mod, I forget which one, kids sometime view the site. I don't think that's true because I see a avi with a kid urinating and it stays.

I think maybe the avi is copywrited and when it's discovered it's delete by owner.

Watch your credit card statements. Especially look for porn sites.

It was actually Mitch staring at Wiggins, so I think we're still good to get the big man.

I was just an avi link that sometimes sets off Chrome if it comes from a place Chrome doesn't like.

But I'm sure people will still take up your advise about especially looking for porn sites. lol.

update:

thesource 's avatar comes from the same image hosting website that GoldenThroat's avi was from.

It's once again a false positive, but since Chrome hasn't taken the site off their blacklist yet some chrome users might still get that warning.

I deleted TheSource's avi.

Looks like that was also the issue on page 5 on the poll thread.
