I tried to access the site after doing a Google search for a particular post and got the following message from Google Chrome when I tried to access:


Warning: Something's Not Right Here!

foot.ie contains content from www.spoonfed.co.uk, a site known to distribute malware. Your computer might catch a virus if you visit this site.

Google has found that malicious software may be installed onto your computer if you proceed. If you've visited this site in the past or you trust this site, it's possible that it has just recently been compromised by a hacker. You should not proceed. Why not try again tomorrow or go somewhere else?

We have already notified www.spoonfed.co.uk that we found malware on the site. For more about the problems found on www.spoonfed.co.uk, visit the Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page.

If you understand that visiting this site may harm your computer, proceed anyway.

Just thought I'd post it here. I've had no trouble or warning accessing the site otherwise; just via a Google search.

Edit: Actually, it seems that this particular thread is the issue, which is the one I'd been searching for: http://foot.ie/threads/166513-Euro-2020-Joint-Bid

I attempted to access the thread through the forum itself and got the message again. Not sure if there are any others affected.

The offending items appears to be the image of "Christ on a bike" which is hosted on that domain

We only allow image embeds, so there's no risk. I'm inclined to leave it.
