EDIT: Vizzed is back to normal! No longer is it flagged by Google for being "unsafe". I just wanted to say thanks to everyone's loyalty and support during this situation and thank you to everyone that helped contact Google to remove the false report. All sections of the site should work like normal again


I've got more details regarding the recent incident with Google flagging Vizzed as unsafe. It now looks like most of the site is being flagged when you're using Firefox or Google Chrome. At the moment the entire forum and the entire Retro Game Room has been flagged.

For the time being, you can easily ignore the warning and continue using Vizzed like usual. To do this with Google Chrome, click 'Details' and then click 'visit this unsafe site'. In Firefox, click the 'Ignore this warning' link.

There are 2 potential reasons why this happened. 1. Someone may have unfairly reported Vizzed as a Phishing site or 2. One of the ads of the new ad network caused red flags to go off (and I've removed those ads to be safe).

Vizzed has always had a great track record of being safe so hopefully everyone reading this trusts when I say that Vizzed never has and never will do anything to harm your computer or to steal any personal information. But just in case, I'll offer some quick proof. Vizzed.com domain has been around since 2003 as you can see here (vizzed board has been around even longer, since 2002) and has a good Alexa rank as you can see here. Vizzed also has great feedback on the following websites: Norton (Safe Web), Webutation, Xmarks, SiteAdvisor (McAfee), and MyWot. I'm hoping that's enough to make you guys feel comfortable with using the site but if it isn't, simply take a look at all of the users who use the site and ask any of them for further proof.

Many users have helped me out with trying to get Google to remove the warning by sending a Report for Incorrect Forgery Alert. It'd be great if more users helped out with this cause so that we can get it removed as soon as possible (it could take up to 72 hours but with everyone's help, it could be sooner). For those who have helped out so far, it'd be great if they could help out more by doing this with the additional URLs that have been affected.

To help out, simply submit a report for the affected URLs from each of the following pages:
https://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_error/?tpl=mozilla&hl=en-US&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vizzed.com%2Fboards
https://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_error/?tpl=mozilla&hl=en-US&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vizzed.com%2Fplay
https://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_error/?tpl=mozilla&hl=en-US&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vizzed.com%2Fplayonlinegames

In the mean time, I'll be making various pages of the site not come up with those URLs until the issue goes away. I appreciate everyone's help and support

As asdren said, Chrome seems to be working fine now.

I can't imagine an ad network would have ads that would get sites blocked.
I suspect this is being done by a malicious ex-user...
If that is the case, its really sad that they would do something like this and further ruin the site since they left.

Either way, I reported the 3 sites again.
Hopefully FireFox catches up and unblocks this site...

Lame. I submitted a "this site is safe" message again in the hopes that it might help. No idea if they count per ip or what but I figure it can't hurt.

This seems like it is someone being malicious and not anything ad related. That would hurt any other site that runs the same ads and that would ruin whatever ad company was pushing those ads.

I agree with Van that it seems more like that someone is submitting claims against Vizzed that was a former member. I've got a few in mind that it could be that have been banned recently but we'll likely have no proof.

I'm getting the security warning on Chrome still.

Geez, first the Nintendo fiasco, and now a false security warning... This year has been great for Vizzed...

Edit: Okay, submitted the reports to help out, but I also got a popup from Avast about possible phishing just now...

I don't want to be the one to mention this but it does come to mind that with the recent issues with many games being taken from the site that may have led someone to believe that the site was bad or that the site was doing wrong. I don't blame that thought but at the same time I don't like it either. It sadly may also be someone who may think they hate vizzed now and want to do something against vizzed.  It's sad that vizzed seems to be running into some bad luck recently and I hope for everyone's sake that that bad luck can go away and we can get the site back on track.

Vizzed is back to normal! No longer is it flagged by Google for being "unsafe". I just wanted to say thanks to everyone's loyalty and support during this situation and thank you to everyone that helped contact Google to remove the false report. All sections of the site should work like normal again


geeogree :
Vanelan : If it was a malicious user, then it makes me wonder if the same user was responsible for reporting Vizzed to Nintendo since both incidents literally look place less than a week apart.

Davideo7 : Well thank god for that.... A small setback on a major source for ad revenue is one thing, but being labeled a hotspot for identity theft would have done serious damage in no time.

Vizzed.com is very expensive to keep alive! The Ads pay for the servers.

Vizzed has 3 TB worth of games and 1 TB worth of music.  This site is free to use but the ads barely pay for the monthly server fees.  If too many more people use ad block, the site cannot survive.

We prioritize the community over the site profits.  This is why we avoid using annoying (but high paying) ads like most other sites which include popups, obnoxious sounds and animations, malware, and other forms of intrusiveness.  We'll do our part to never resort to these types of ads, please do your part by helping support this site by adding Vizzed.com to your ad blocking whitelist.
