Blocked on Firefox too. Must be a wee bug in there somewhere.....
I got a pop-up from my A/V program stating that the firewall had blocked a nasty little trojan with a really long name, when I tried to log on to their forums. That was a few days ago.... I'm using IE9 with the Symantec Firewall.

The warning "Attack Site" came up on Firefox 18.0 (beta version) this morning here also for Flightsim.com. Ignored the warning and loaded the site. Seemed to be normal, so ran Malwarebytes scan and no malware was found.
No problems detected using Ie9 and Security essentials.

Came up OK for me with Chrome v23.0.something.
It appears to be back to normal. I was getting a warning with Firefox, and frankly after having something from that site blow up my system six months ago I was okay with staying away even using NoScript if I got a warning that they were buggered up.
Not that I lost any sleep over it...
I was seaching around and got the same thing more or less from google it self when I click on a Flightsim link.

I have had the warning off and on all evening. The only reason I am not overly concerned about my rig is the fact that I run a script blocking add-on to Firefox. Bypassing warnings and then checking your system after you went there makes no sense to me, but it's your gamble, not mine. Personally there is nothing there that is that important to risk your system on.
Granted that it is Christmas, it still seems odd to me that there has been no response from the admins there regarding this.
Seems to be OK now... Not getting any more warnings or pop-up from my A/V program. Hopefully Nels found the problem and took care of it.

I don't think the 'Security Warning' means there is any malware at FltSimCom. What it means is that someone at some outfit that 'Cleans' your PC/Server of malware (for $399 to $999) is using Google to lay this 'egg' (out in the open) and now they will catch heck from 'the boss'. I wouldn't want to be that person, that's for sure. The 'overcooked' this 'trick' and there does not have to be a virus (they don't CHECK for it). The only thing that has to be 'true' for the warning is for a link to have a link, or link to a jpg (picture), or a script (any), or anything (line, word, reference to) not 'normal' for programming. Google allows this? Bad news. But there is no malware. It's a scam. Just don't get curious and go to 'Buy Now', and don't click on 'Donate' (the gall of these idiots-DONATE? Ha!). Just click 'Continue' and ignore then click on 'X' on bar.

All seems to be in order at Flightsim with Google now.

Just got the same warning for Firefox saying it's an "attack site". I can wait until things get sorted out...
N.
Just tried it, and got the attack warning.
While I don't trust Google any farther than I can throw their building, I'm inclined to heed such warnings. It's the only case where guilty till proven innocent for me, but it's safer.
Hope they get it sorted out soon.
I've been getting that warning all morning. I've tried both Bing and Yahoo, with no warnings, sounds like Google has dropped the ball again.
Bing and Yahoo have more or less been the same for quite awhile....
