When I try and connect to www.LinuxForums.org Firefox tells me it is a reported attack page, suggesting to me it has been hacked.

 

Does the same happen to others? Or is there some way for me to confirm whether this is not a false positive? NOTE: DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK! - Just so I am not responsible if anything happens.

 

Though if anything knows anything about the forum and whether the mods have said anything about this, please share.

Google certainly seems to think it's been hacked.

Fortunately, that website, on url scans, doesn't seem malicious. Though I didn't visit it.

 

I think I'll wait this out for a few days and see if the problem persists.
