    Why would 4tube be considered an attack site?

    This is the first time that my computer has declared 4tube to be an attack site. This happened more then once today. To look at the site, I had to click ignore warning. Now when I go to the site, I go directly to the site without the warning. How often does this happen with tube sites? Does anyone know why my computer would single out 4tube rather
    then other tube sites?

      traffichaus pushing malware?
      Aren't these guys with mainstream operations?

      It's probably a rogue affiliate sneaking shit via iframe ads after their links have been approved. Wouldn't be the first time it happens to a network

          Could be a false positive on some ad code, or their url is reported as malicious. I've saw it happen with some of our advertisers before, and had to get them to speak to whatever protection programme we noticed it in, to get it cleared up.

          All Manwin ads are reported as Attack Pages in McAfee. I've told them about this several times, it's very easy to get fixed but as of yet, they haven't done it. With the amount of $ they spend per day on ads, they are losing a shit ton of ad impressions/clicks and probably a lot of sales as well.

            Hi Jamie,

            There is presently NO issues with the 4Tube sites, nor is there anything wrong with the TrafficHaus.com ad servers. They are 100% up and running without malware incident.
            This was a freak occurrence caused by one of the advertisers on 4Tube, NOT caused by TrafficHaus. From what I understand the incident has been cleared and the site is safe for browsing. This was a temporary issue for one of the ad networks on there.

              For over a year, I have noticed that entire scenes have been uploaded on to 4tube. Today I looked at the running times of the latest 10 pages of uploaded videos. Of the 240 videos, 50 of them were over 20 minutes in length. For the full length videos, no companies are identified. If you click on the sites part of the website, the videos are mostly 4 or 5 minutes. If you click on a particular actress, you will see a mixture of the company approved videos (4 or 5 minutes) and the videos that show entire scenes.

              I wonder how many of the companies that are approving the 4 or 5 minute videos are aware that so many of their movies are being shown in over 20 minute increments. In the past, 4tube was promoted as a tube site that just had videos from porn companies. I don't think porn companies are putting up over 20 minute videos in which there isn't anything on the page identifying the video as coming from the porn company. 4tube is now either letting the general public submit videos or they are putting them up themselves.

                It's happened again with my computer warning me about 4tube. The message I get is
                this:

                Reported Attack Page!

                This web page at 4tube has been reported as an attack page and has been blocked based on your security preferences.

                Attack pages try to install programs that steal private information, use your computer to attack others, or damage your system.Some attack pages intentionally distribute harmful software, but many are compromised without the knowledge or permission of their owners.

                      I realize many websites, including lots of mainstream, skirt good security practices and trust 3rd-party servers for ads, scripts, etc ... however, imho, ultimately, it's the service's responsibility to ensure that such 3rd party data is sanitized and safe for visitors.

                      Google, McAfee, etc, while error-prone, likely have 4Tube correctly pegged as an intermediary distributor of malware, etc. Dumping shady ad networks and sanitizing links often resolve such issues ... though seemingly that's not what some sites really want; assisting in the serving of malware via 3rd parties is potentially profitable for some ... maybe 4Tube falls into that group?

                          4tube now does allow user uploads. There is an upload page. To give an example, there are full scenes (over 25 minutes each) from WKRP In Cincinnati: A XXX Parody. These are not in the New Sensations section of 4tube (which have advertisements promoting New Sensations). Do you think New Sensations would approve videos without advertisements for them and are over 25 minutes each? In the New Sensations section, most of their videos are under 6 minutes.
