For any of you who are on The Planted Tank Forum, do you see anything that blocks off the page altogether? It says:

I got a malware warning from that link. I had the same thing happen to me with another site, but when I went to a bookmarked page within the main site, it didn't give me any warnings, and nothing bad happened. After a month or so, I stopped getting warnings about the main site.

Well... it was hacked that day, no wonder.

Hello Lil' Swimz$,

Unfortunately on the night of September 10, 2010 the Planted Tank forum was hacked due to an exploit in a piece of software on the forum.

We are highly recommending that all user's reset their forum password in the case that it was compromised.

You can reset your password here:
