Hoping this goes through as a comment on the Nexus Mods as this is one of the last things I could try to try to get into contact with someone.I've tried to get into the chat to see if a Moderator or Admin was present but I get locked out of it, I've tried to post topics but again was blocked by SmartScreen, I've tried PMing with the same results. Basically any attempts to contact any Nexus personnel has been blocked because of SmartScreen or failed to go through from my end. This is the only way that I can get into contact with the Nexus.To clarify Nexus Mods is unaffected by this and its purely the Nexus Forums that is affected.4 Hours ago I've been having no problem getting into the Nexus Forums (all are affected) and even had a discussion with a person trying to fix up his code for a Skyrim mod. Now 4 hours later I get a red screen from the Forums stating that:"This website has been reported as unsafeforums.nexusmods.comWe recommend that you do not proceed to this website. It had been reported to Microsoft for containing threats to your computer that might reveal personal or financial information"clicking on More information reveals this:"Malicious software threat: This site contains links to viruses or other software programs that can reveal personal information stored or typed on your computer to malicious persons"I've already reported that this is a false threat to Microsoft however I am just one man, while reporting I saw an option that stated:"I am the owner or representative of this website and I want to report an incorrect warning about this website"My one word might not be enough to unblock Nexus Forums from this but if an admin of the site submitted a report I think it would be much more successful to unblock the Forums so they are usable again to others like me that have SmartScreen active.There is an option on the Warning that states:"Disregard and continue (not recommended)"However that only works to view the page there is something about this block that prevents me from posting anything after I get to the page. As soon as I click post or attempt to enter chat it blocks me once more then kicks me back to the previous page when I click proceed.If someone can get an admin or moderator to see this then I would be grateful because as it stands SmartScreen is blocking me from anything since communications is built into the forums framework.I just wanted to bring this to the site admins or moderators attention so this can hopefully be resolved.Thank you for your time,JetSteeleTKHBMVP wrote: Can confirm what you raise here, since this morning forums.nexusmods.com is on Microsoft Smartscreen Filter here and reported as malicous resource and blocked, the website not, until now.yuppppppppppppppim mcluvin the being blocked because the manual donld is unsafe. cant get a thing to to download at all.
