Google Now Claiming PS3Center Has Malware

**X_Racer1** · 04-11-2010

A couple of hours ago, while I attempted to reach the forums main page, I was stopped by Firefox because now according to Google, PS3Center.net has malicious content on it and as such is being blocked by Google (which is what Firefox relies on for blocking attack websites).

The above images document what happens when Firefox checks Google's blocked site list and subsequently produces the warnings. In my case this was generated on Firefox 4 Beta 6, but the same should apply to Firefox 3.6.1.2 as well as it uses the same type of protection.

This obviously is a cause for concern for the security of users and because it will drive possible site traffic away from PS3Center.net. Currently the only way to get around this problem in Firefox is to simply turn off attack site protection, which of course, is NOT recommended. Just thought I would bring up so the proper actions can be taken to resolve this problem.
