I can't make the warning go away by snapping my fingers, people. All I can do is do everything I can to make sure the site is clean (done) and request a review so Google will take us off the list (done). Until they do that, the warning stays. It's out of our hands.

The red interstitial message comes up for me on Firefox. You also see a 'This site may harm your computer' warning in Google if you do a search for 'child free by choice.'
I'm on Linux right now and not afraid to open the site, since most malware is for Windows machines. But, I was afraid to open it when I was on the Windows side yesterday.
I entered the TCFL URL into Firefox at my university and the first thing I see is a BIG RED WARNING SCREEN yelling at me that THIS IS AN ATTACK SITE.
However, I've never encountered any malware from visiting this site.
This isn't an an accident. Someone at Google has a vendetta against this website. They are as pronatalist as they come...have you seen the "Dear Sophie Lee" videos sponsored on YouTube?
I'll continue to visit the forum regardless of the warning. But yeah, I've been experiencing it as well and can't access the site at all through my mobile phone.

I was getting the ATTACK!!! warning for three days. I didn't proceed, because I thought perhaps kind of anti-CF hacker had got in. Anyway, today warning is gone so hopefully all good!

I just checked in with Webmaster Tools. We're OFFICIALLY clear. Google has taken us off the naughty list. If you are still getting warnings, clear your cache.

For anyone interested, this was part of a wide-spread attack that affected thousands of sites all running a few of the same types of software. The security hole has been patched, and as an added precaution, the ability to post replies to blog posts on the main site has been suspended indefinitely.
