Default chrome blocking downloads as unsafe
I am trying to download some files I forgot to grab yesterday and am now getting blocked by chrome saying the downloads are unsafe. I tried to see if I can do anything on my end but apparently it has to be a page owner that fixes it. Not sure if anyone else is having this problem as I just did an update on my laptop last night. The issue seems to be site specific as well, I didn't have problems with my other downloads just my Sims2 downloads from here.

Are you browsing http:// or https:// version of site? You might try using the https version if using http. It might be an issue with some thumbnails from sister site and not an actual safety issue.

I am using HTTPS, I have a link saved that I have used for ages.

I'm getting the same thing. This is one of those links where it happens:

Does chrome block the whole page, or just the actual download? I guess we should page @Tashiketh
@Jaded24-7 Could you post a link where this happens too please?

ETA: I installed chrome (bleh) It happens here too:

and https://modthesims.info/d/647732/ga...ydroponics.html

I can't actually find anything on here that will download without the security message. I can click 'keep' though to finish the download.

Tis fixed, thanks for the heads up!

I have had the same issue with Chrome several places. I tick learn more and then they let me download anyway. After all I have a virusprogram and don't download shit.
