IT'S A COOK BOOK! IT'S A COOK BOOK!

Yeah it's an ad. I have Ad Blocker on now and I'm not getting the malware.

Answer me this: When you load a page multiple times, do you get the exact same advertisement, from the exact same company, every single time? Of course not. When you load a page, and get that specific advertisement, Chrome goes into seizure mode. Some people might not ever see the ad, or use AdBlock and/or FlashBlock, so Chrome won't find a problem.
To sum it up: YOU DO NOT HAVE A VIRUS. It's only a matter of chance. If Chrome freaks out, don't sweat it, just refresh the page.

^ that. Newgrounds does not have a virus, but one of the places that has an ad here may have gotten into trouble for one before.

Just click to go back and try it again, as long as you aren't clicking on that specific ad, you'll be fine.

And even then, the page that chrome is bugging about, may be a clean page. THEY may have been in trouble due an ad THEY ran once.

No issues with NG.

We do appreciate you bringing it up, Tom does his best to ensure no ads here can harm our computers. Wade posted in one of these threads, so an admin is aware.

Please PM us if you have further issues.
