icons.iconator.com?
I am not sure if this fits in troubleshooting, it it doesn't, move it wherever it fits.
Ok, I was going to some of the TBG topics I had bookmarked, and on all but one of them, Chrome told me that those pages "had elements from icons.iconator.com, which appears to host malware". Should I ignore this, or stay away? Until I get a definitive answer, I will stay away.

Re: icons.iconator.com?
That happen to me too. And yes, it's because of the images in some people's* signature.
* There is not only one.
EDIT: I have figured out why. By looking at their signature, I found one thing in common: their signature contains the following picture:
Another thing I found is that the URL of the picture is http://icons.iconator.com/226/ICONATOR_3523a51c851aa461ea562935e5e54b1f.gif, and this is why.

Firefox doesn't block the image, but when I go to the host site, it says "Reported Attack Page". This is the explanation for its blocking: http://safebrowsing.clients.google.com/ … nator.com/
Yawn.

Re: icons.iconator.com?
Maybe Firefox doesn't block sites that contain contents from "attack pages"?

Re: icons.iconator.com?
yeah, I had that problem too. I just use my IE Tab extention or my Wii (right now) to browse the fourms. 
bye 1.4, we all loved you. but we all outgrew the site. 2.0 is a welcome change.
