Yes. Firefox apparently checks with Google to be sure a site has not been
compromised. If you click the button about learning more, you'll get a
report that a malicious software creep hit Chris's site and left behind some
doo doo. Only one report on it, per Google, and I imagine by now that Chris
is "safe" to visit again. I went ahead and told Firefox to ignore the
warning and viewed the images, and my AVG program detected nothing unusual.

When I tried visiting Chris' site this evening to have another look at
that great Crab image, I get the following warning in my browser
(Firefox 3.0.5).
Anyone else seen this?
