Marc,

This started popping up on my computer in the last few weeks. ( Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page for vivariumtopsites.com ) My computer is clean. I scan it with several programs like Malwarebytes, MicroTrend, Housecall, etc. and it is saying that your site is associated with Mal ware sites, etc. There are other sites that are falling under the same conditions because of http://www.vivariumtopsites.com (according to the link provided). I just wanted to let you know.

Browser: Google Chrome

I just recently got rid of a horrble virus on my computer. stuff would pop up and say my comp is infected with spyware. It tries to download a fake scanner by itself, so jst becareful. It is called the system security virus. Just beware I had to reformat my com.

I live and die by my laptop, so I tr to be super careful. I've had a few viruses, and they can really ruin your day. I lost some very important pics of my son that I will never get back.
I encourage everyone to get an external Hard Drive and "BACK UP!" "BACK UP!" "BACK UP!"

On my HD I have two folders. One labeled Downloaded Files and Programs and another with my Media (Pics, Vids and Music) and File Management. I have learned that computers are only really good for a few years, so when I get a new one, all I have to do is attach my HD and load up all my programs from the Downloaded Files folder, and my Media and other stuff if right there.

Another awesome investment is Norton Ghost-Wel worth the money.

This problem will repeat itself if you are not careful. You can click on another site and the same type of box will show up. The best thing to do is hit ctrl alt delete and end the program that way because by clicking cancel on that box will automatically initiate the process of downloading. You don't have to reformat your comp all you need to do is call your antivirus program company and tell them whats up and they will tell you step by step on how to get rid of it. PC-illian or Trend Mirco Internet Security Look at link below to see who I am talking about. is awesome for that. I happened to me twice. Your antivirus company will send you programs to get rid of various things on your computer. Most people are unaware that they will do this for you. I highly recommend Trend Mircro. I had a virus on my comp that could have been named after me and they helped me get rid of it. It was a new virus they had never seen and it could have made my computer inoperable! A+++ service there.

Other programs to get:
Malwarebytes (Free)

You can also use TrendMirco on their site for free:

PS: No grayware, malware, viruses, etc are on my computer when I got the Google message.
