Archlinux forums untrusted?

Decided to visit the Arch Linux website forum and I get a message in Firefox saying it's Untrusted.

Arch Linux, not trusted? It never cheated on me, or stole money from me, or drank all my beer. And sure, it's a pain in the ass to get to know. But not trustworthy? Never! (Sure, it's cousin Chakra Linux has been sleeping around, but that's another story.)

So do I click "I Understand the Risks" or not?

(And no, I'm not using Arch - I'm on my Mac - but I did manage to get it installed!)

I think Linux still as 2nd option. I prefer t use Windows so far. Linux must do more innovation on usability, hardware compability..etc.

Best advise is to click no. sometimes even trustworthy webpages are infected temporarily.

Check a few days later if the problem is disapeared - if not it was right to click no smiley

Getting rid of a virus is more a pain in the ass than waiting for a web service for 2 days.

Although Linux is getting stable, I think in some points there are still some items need to be perfected

@mark
I have had firefox tell me the same thing when I have visited websites and I tend to just click yes but your comment has made me think and I do agree with you! It's probably best to wait rather than risking an infection.

I personally think Linux is good in term of stability, but Linux must learn a lot about User Interface from Windows and Mac OS.

This has happened to me a couple of times. I just try to be safe and never continue opening the site. It is better safe than sorry. Then I run my antivirus just to be sure.
