I just use Firefox.

!!!!!!

:O

yeah i use firefox at home, Is that the only difference?
Is my computer safe?

My friend said she's been having problems like these too when visiting the site.

I haven't had any problems though..

I use Chrome, which I expect is the reason that I was actually warned about it. I think IE would have written it's own virus to screw my PC up if it could have..

I haven't used firefox in a while, but when I used to there were just too many websites (newegg.com, for instance) that just didn't work. Maybe that's changed so I should give it a shot, but I like Chrome. As long as I don't have to use IE or anything that works like it, I'm happy.

dont blame your browser. the problem is vgchartz does no quality checking and will let anyone embed a link on their site for the right price. this isnt a new problem with vgchartz.

dont blame your antivirus software either, its picking up on a legitimate threat.

Yeah VGchartz needs some stricter guidelines for their ads

This probably started happening only recently I would say within the last month. When I first started using the site things went smoothly but recently like others have mentioned I've found that my laptop will crash and freeze on the site often and once I did receive a virus warning. Hopefuly its not causing some serious hidden issues but for now i just have to hope that i can get on without problems.

What ads?

Firefox!

most of the "ads" arent even popups. they are embeded links just to generate hits and traffic. scummy stuff
