1.Go to your forum settings and delete your sign if it is from that site.
2.Hope that others will do it as well.

That's what happens when you put "shady" signatures which chrome doesn't like. This auto generating signature which generates you recent updates has become popular in MAL so that's why you're seeing this very often.

Apparently Google has tagged iSignature as a malware distributor recently. A lot of users have signatures in their forum settings that are made using iSignature, so this is likely why you get this when you're browsing the forums.

You can edit your Forum Settings to "Hide Signatures". This will enable you to browse the forum without getting this message using Chrome, but you will no longer be able to see signatures.

Yeah looks like that was it. Maybe iSignature should temporarily be disallowed til that is resolved? That issue is gonna affect a ton of people otherwise and most people aren't going to immediately try to disable signatures (and while I don't mind I'm sure most people wouldn't want to either).

I will contact the creator and hope he can get this sorted out from his end.

In the meantime, we will remove any iSignature sigs that we come across and are reported. There are quite a number of them though, so this likely won't be easy...

Users can help us out by removing their own iSignature for the time being, notifying their friends, and reporting any other user sigs they see.

Thanks for making us aware of this issue.

Hey, Kineta, I can't tell who, but a lot of the Shakugan no Shana episode discussion threads have been coming up with this problem. Just making sure you're aware.

For example, the threads for episode 6, 7, 9, 10 and 11.

Thankyou. :D

Will edit this post if I find anymore

This has been happening a lot for me as well. Mainly on the club threads (member cards, etc). I put the 'Hide signatures' option in the Forum Settings and that seems to be working for me, but I hope this issue gets fixed soon...
Thank you for posting about this~

It seems that the creator has sorted out the issue and i906.com.my has been removed from Google's Blacklist. Users that hid signatures should be able to re-enable them without any problems now.

Only experienced this in one thread, but it's good to see what's causing it.
