I noticed some misleading ads on Sourceforge that, if downloaded, will install malware on your computer. Have Sourceforge become a dirty site?
That's not directly caused by Sourceforge. They just use Google Adsense, and somebody has uploaded a Google Adwords advertisement that picks up on the keyword "download" and shows that ad. You can use the buttons on the top right of the ad to report the ad and Google will take it down.

This is the image I see in googles security panel when hitting F12 when accessing the site that I am trying to develop. I have no idea how to fix this issue so that the site comes up as secure. How can I find what resources it is referring to?
The issue was that some of my images were not going through the SSL layer. I had to install Firefox dev edition and see what resources were causing the issues using Firebug. Once I fixed that, the site popped up as secure.
I want to share my crashlytics crash report to some 3rd parties.
How can I get a publicly accessible url like below?
http://crashes.to/s/419b5b28766
I am bit new here, is it a old deprecated crashlytics feature?
I don't seem to find in my fabric crashlytics dashboard.
Zubair - from Fabric/Firebase. Great question. We deprecated that share link feature, so those won’t be accessible anymore. The decision to drop support for it was based on customer feedback, and because we don’t plan to carry over the share links feature over to Firebase.
Definitely not ideal if you were using that feature a lot, but as a workaround I recommend downloading the stacktrace and issue details with the "Download .txt" file button and sharing that instead.
Downloading the stacktrace and issue details with the "Download .txt" file button was part of the Fabric.io. In Google Firebase, using the BigQuery is the best way to get that data. To to that make sure, you have enabled the BQ Integration under Project Settings > Integrations > BigQuery
I was just trying to get a quick [free] video record of a screen (with captions), and wanted to use something I've happily used in the past - Camstudio (https://camstudio.org/), but when I go to download it I notice I'm being redirected to a suspect website (http://www.nameghesere.com).
You can't get onto the Camstudio forums without invite - so I thought I'd ask here in case anyone knows.
Has Camstudio been compromised? Is it still a viable [free] solution?
Thanks
Abe
Ah - I've found another download site for Camstudio (https://sourceforge.net/projects/camstudio/files/latest/download) which includes a warning:
Notice Regarding Malware:
The downloads from camstudio.org are known to contain malware.
All downloads from SourceForge are virus scanned. As of this writing there is no malware on the SourceForge downloads for CamStudio.
Perhaps someone should shut down the camstudio.org site.
I was trying to publish a new version of an Add-on that was already created, but when I tried to publish it, in the Developer Dashboard and on the top of the page a warning message was shown:
As of November 21st, 2016, all newly published packaged or hosted apps are restricted to Chrome OS, and are not available to users on Windows, Mac or Linux. Existing apps will continue to be available on all major platforms and will continue to receive updates. - More Info
Note: This change does not apply to Google Drive Apps or Add-Ons for Google Apps.
So if you click on the "More Info" button you will see more additional information.
So all of this should be a problem to me because I have important applications that I need everyday, so I wonder if there is any other alternative way to keep working with add-ons.
Thank you!
AFAIK, this change (if Google decides to proceed with it) would only apply to Chrome Apps (see my answer here).
In the Chromium Blogpost (also the link for More Info in your post), it mentioned:
In the second half of 2017, the Chrome Web Store will no longer show Chrome apps on Windows, Mac, and Linux, but will continue to surface extensions and themes.
Add-ons weren't specifically mentioned, but as already included in your post, Add-ons that are for Google Drive Apps or any Google Apps in general (e.g. Docs, Sheets, etc.) are the exception.
If you're add-on is associated with a non-Google App, it is possible that you will be affected with the change. Seeing as the Chrome App will be removed, the associated Add-ons would follow.
You probably already know the differences between a Chrome App, an Extension, and an Add-on, but for future readers that are not familiar, might as well post this link to a YouTube video that explains Apps vs Extensions vs Add-ons.
I am using Google Doc Viewer to display local PDFs on our site (override for IE7 and 8 because of permissions issue): http://www.scad.edu/news/index.cfm?pageid=338423. The issue is that sometimes people have experienced the PDF not being displayed, being replaced with an iframed Google sign in page. I am having a lot of difficulty reproducing these results, trying several browsers, even clearing my entire browser cache, using off-site browsers such as Adobe BrowserLabs and BrowserShots, etc. I know the error is occurring on an OS X 10.5 machine running Firefox 3.5.2 and on another machine with similar software. The not-so-technical personnel are claiming it happens after not having signed into Google for a week or so, but it displays fine for me when I am signed out on a fresh install. And yes, I have witnessed the issue several times on their machines but simply can not reproduce it.
Please advise on how to hunt down this bug. I can't find anyone else with the same issue. I am considering just switching to Scribd PDF viewer.
The not-so-technical personal may actually be on to something. This issue seems to occur when a Google user's session expires. The user is presented with the login form instead of the document, even when the viewer is embedded in an iframe. Apparently it's still an unresolved bug. Check out this question for more details:
Embedded Google Docs PDF viewer displays login page rather than PDF
I hope they fix this :)
this is related with permissions check your permissions and try again,i think viewer can reach your files if you give permission.
Just do this prior to loading the gdocs viewer, it should solve the problem every time.
