Malware Warning
I was just browsing the home page of outpost and suddenly chrome gives me this screen saying, (something along the lines of) this site is connected with traffickupernikus.com a known malware distributer... something like that

anyone else have the same problem? should i be scared?

outpost tries to install java plugins to my computer without my consent, so something has to be off

Are you sure it was TF2OUTPOST.COM
Not Tf2outposst.com or something similar?

And what part of the website did this?

just double checked; tf2outpost.com

also, I'm not exactly sure, but I'm pretty sure it was from the home screen and clicking on a trade.

The next time it happens, I will be sure to note it.

I just got one of these while sitting on the site, it's the second one i've seen in a couple days. The "Digital signature" on the setup.exe is from a Bechiro S.L., which I'm seeing on google is some sort of toolbar installer.

i would prefer not to use adblock too, since the ads are there to support outpost :p

I don't think OP would make you forcibly download a toolbar, so this could be an outside exploit, or possibly something with google chrome

Try to enable ad block for now, and we will get zemnmez, our most prized anti-ad specialist on it.

I get this, and also get random audio ads (that play after a little while on idling the site) while being tabed out (i know it's tf2op because when i close it, the ad stops) haven't been using op as much since this happened, and definitely not keeping it open for longer than 10 minutes

EDIT: Happens to me on the home page only, and seems to come with the download
