Yes, they do. You just don't know enough to understand that.

Provide your OS and browser type when reporting a problem. It really does matter.

JRandom, am thinking next the upper right corner ‘x’ to disregard or rather cancel is going to be hot soon with what have seen. Any suggestions?

Dude, try again...

Those are Google links and it is Google that is generating the warning when you use Google’s search engine to find a particular FreeRepublic thread.

How Google handles what they consider to be an unsafe URL has nothing to do with my OS or browser. Neither my OS or browser provided any warnings about FreeRepublic.com nor did I claim they did. The entire point of my links was that Google thinks particular threads on FreeRepublic.com are unsafe as determined by Google - not my browser and not my OS.

I do have a clue.

BTW, Jim got the issue fixed as he stated in #31. It was an embedded image link referencing a site Google thinks is unsafe. Not an OS issue, not a browser issue. It was entirely based on Google scanning the specific FreeRepublic.com thread and finding something they believe is unsafe and then flagging it. Any URL lookup for that thread via a Google service and/or application would then issue the warning.
