Whomever is in charge of Malware cleaning

Google is getting ready to black list you, I don't get it everytime but you need to go to google webmaster tools to see whats up.

That's not hosted here. It's just a linked image in a thread somewhere.

Na, they'll blacklist the site that it's coming from - not CP.

This topic comes up about once every 2-3 months it seems. There's nothing we can do about it aside from making people attach images instead of linking them.

Sorry - you don't know what you're talking about. Thanks for trying though.

I'm thinking before that, perhaps at "...content from malwaresite.org" or "we have already notified malwaresite.org..." or using the tool provided.

Ok then

In case you are curious, the issue here is that there isn't anything on ChiefsPlanet's server. You'll note in the page you posted that the message doesn't say that CP hosts malware - it says that the page contains content from another site (malwaresite.org) that is known to distribute malware. Also note that the message you posted doesn't say they're letting ChiefsPlanet know that there's an issue; it says they're letting malwaresite.org know. Again, that's because CP isn't the issue.

In other words, the scan you posted wouldn't find anything because the content in question isn't on ChiefsPlanet's server - it's on another site that is just linked in.

If you know the specific thread that message popped up on, we can go in and delete the individual image that's causing the issue, but it's really not a big deal.

That is 100% correct.... If it's not a problem then why did Google throw it up at me when I came here?

To let you know there's a POTENTIAL concern, obviously. Windows pops up a message warning you when you install a program, but that doesn't mean that every application is going to eat your brain - only that you should be careful.

Again, if you want to link where the message appeared, I can ditch the image. But the reality is, you're not going to get any kind of a virus from a linked JPG.
