I do not have or want chrome. I use firefox and it says google is advising them of an unsafe site and won't let me go there. Safe browsing is unchecked in google settings. So why are you sending this advisory to my browser? How do i get it stopped?

Firefox consumes Safe Browsing blacklists and shows warnings (as you see) when there is a match.  To bypass a single warning, you can click 'see details', and then there will be a link to go to the site without warnings.

To turn of Safe Browsing entirely in Firefox (which I do not recommend), navigate to "about:preferences#security" (Or menu->preferences->security) and uncheck "Block dangerous and deceptive content"

 When i do this i get a second blocker from firefox because of the google warning. See the top of the web page in the new attachment.

In that picture, you click the 'ignore the risk' link to go to continue to go to the site.

And if you want to turn off just this kind of warnings (potentially
unwanted software) but not the malware/phishing warnings, uncheck "Warn
you about unwanted and uncommon software" and leave "Block dangerous and
deceptive content" checked.

This seems to solve the problem. Thanks
