Saw that as well.

This was only while using Mozilla. I didn't get this with IE11.

I've been getting this same message using Chrome.

Shouldn't matter what browser. I got it on iOS Safari, Mac Safari, and Mac Chrome.

Thanks for the heads up everyone, we are currently working on a fix with Google.

Our servers are not putting out any malicious files or malware at this time, the problem was because a user uploaded a set of map files which contained malware. Because one thread linked to malware, the whole site got tagged as 'dangerous'.

We've neutralized the file and as long as you didn't download the .ZIP file, you are fine. Now its just a matter of getting our 'record' cleaned with Google.

Sorry of the inconvenience and thanks for the heads up!
