Has anyone noticed this? Anytime I try to get into any new source in N4G, Mozilla advises me that there could be some malware waiting.

Same here. Dont visit those sites. Better avoid them.



Reminds me of when the ads were linking to warez, lol.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

It is not the actual site (source) that is bad it is the N4G redirect site that is throwing up the malware flag.

It's better if people avoid N4G altogether.



Check out my art blog: http://jon-erich-art.blogspot.com

Perhaps, but it has some interesting articles. Like the "Top 10 *random fact* in gaming".



Yeah I get that warning sometimes.

N4G should be removed from VGChartz (unless VGChartz gets lots of money from N4G). All the N4G links are bunch of articles written by hacks. Also, most of the N4G linked articles are excerpts from articles written from more reputable sources (i.e Eurogamers Digital Foundry, etc).




I had this problem a few years back, with my internet security flagging it as a dodgy site, so i stop following the links. Also had a different problem with some of the ads appearing to open new pages in my browser which also sent me to dodgy webpages.
