    I wonder if someone is maliciously reporting STR as a malware site.

    it's only google chrome that's affected that's probably why you don't get the problem with Safari. It works fine with fire fox, opera, or IE.

    It doesn't work like that. If you look at the Google page it has more information. It could be a false positive but I won't risk it.
