...in the past half-hour I've twice been warned by my virus protection scheme not to visit a page, on a well-established site.  One was here on AoM, other was National Review IIRC.  Anybody else getting this?  I'm wondering if it's my machine, random chance, or if some malware's having its epidemic on the Web.

In fact I get a warning when I try to edit this OP!  It says

Danger: Malware Ahead!
Google Chrome has blocked access to this page on community.artofmanliness.com.
Content from cm.netseer.com, a known malware distributor, has been inserted into this web page. Visiting this page now is very likely to infect your computer with malware.
Malware is malicious software that causes things like identity theft, financial loss, and permanent file deletion. Learn more

It could be the adverts on the site, as it's not unknown for ads to be malware/spam/cons, even those ads run by Google. Could even be malware on your PC so it's worth scanning to make sure

It's fine on my end. It may just be your machine. I'm using Chrome too.

I'm not getting warnings, but I can't access all sorts of sites. I'm running Firefox on a Mac. It could be my connection. It could also be a power or other outage with the web sites' servers (possibly caused by malware).

I was getting these a few days ago. It's one of the ad servers. Mine cleared itself up after a few hours.

Found this today: http://marketingland.com/googles-chrome-browser-issues-malware-warn...

 

Hope this clears things up

Two weeks ago my puter would not let me log on here for a few days , it kept warning me of something similar , not had any trouble since .
