    Chess.com is very safe. The message you got may have been from a fake source. It might have been meant to lure you to a site with viruses.

    If you re stil worried, hereare some tips:

         Have a good anti-virus program.

         Do not reveal any personal info to chess.com (e.g. use a fake name, fake age, fake location)

         Play chess.

    I have seen this notice also.

    As suggested by others I think the pop ups MAY have trojans etc

    I think Erik said that for any of us receiving that alert, just ignore it for the time being.  Not to worry, there is no threat from that alert.

    I get that screen all the time...I use the computer at work to log in. (It's not a very good computer but it's the only one I have access to; i don't know what kind of protection it has install).
