    Firefox called it a attack site too. But they also did that for Adam Carolla's podcast website. Guess what? Google doesn't like guns folks. And they don't like people that go off the liberal reservation either. I don't know if there's malware on this site, but I do know sometimes these warnings are total bullshit.

    Google sucks balls. Stop using google PPL.

    Steve's pages has been around for ever, if it's Google being anti, they could have done this ten years ago. Or was that all part of the conspiracy??

    And it's not Google but my AV software that's giving me that message...

    Plus, Google has no problem with the myriad of other firearm forums and websites I go to!

    It might be a Watering Hole, a computer attack strategy identified in 2012 by the RSA security firm in which an attacker targets a particular group (organization, industry, or region). The attack consists of three phases:

    1. Guess which websites the group often uses.
    2. Infect one or more of these websites with malware.
    3. Eventually, some member of the targeted group will get infected.

    Relying on websites the group trusts makes this strategy efficient even with groups that are resistant to spear phishing and other forms of phishing.

    There's been several cyber alerts issued about it back in May.
