I got this warning on Google Chrome. See attachment.

Just thought that you Devs should be aware of this. I managed to do what needed doing in the game, and logged out. When I try to log in now, I get that warning, and cannot log in. This has happened within the last half hour.

Update2:

I got Chrome Malware Warning, like others on the Forum, too. static2.ubi.com is blacklisted 3x in last 90 days. So: Ubisoft block us by IP addresses or my ISP block Ubisoft becasue they servers are dangerous. Main problem is the malware warning, I think.

I got the same warning in Chrome as well, but as I have little reason to believe Ubi nor BB will infect my machine, I am continuing no matter what... Besides, if your Antivirus, Antimalware and Firewall are up and running, little or no reason to be concerned.

Update:

We were informed that this is a matter of wrong blacklisting. Everything is safe and the issue is still a work in progress.

Have fun and thank you again for your patience and understanding!

How does "wrong blacklisting" (pointing to a specific ubisoft server) come into existence?

Let's not beat around the bush: TSO = malware, because it eats a lot of my processor cycles. :D

Reading https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=327346 doesn't help :)

I am just gonna wait for the rescan and unblock to happen.

this has been quoted a few times today - perhaps the home page should be changed to mention it?

I trust Google Chrome more than Bluebyte so when it said warning I did not try another route. It has now cleared so I take it the malware has been removed from the main site.

Hoppo
11.12.13, 00:15
Yep, it seems like they've fixed the problem now. Good to see that I wasn't the only one having that problem.

Mods, you can close this thread now if you wish. :-)
