Word.

Pingtest is malware? Interesting.
Politeness is a discipline that compels respectful behavior. Morality is like a politeness of the soul, an etiquette of the inner life, a code of duties, a ceremonial of the essential.

Basically, Chrome is saying this because Ping Test was either hacked (and malicious scripts, etc uploaded) or reported as containing malware. The sigs themselves are static images; they're safe to embed no matter what happens.

Wait, what? My signature? My signature is from the same site as everyone else who has it in their signature.

How could mine be different?

It is NOT bad, no one needs to remove anything. This is what we would call a "false positive". I will pingtest the hubby in the morning to give me a better more elaborate answer to "false positive".
