You can put "-AI" to exclude AI-generated crap...but it's beyond stupid that such a thing is necessary, and that only undoes one of the ways Google is going wrong..
A trip down memory lane TF websites from the past
- Thread starter tec
- Start date
Here's something from this very forum archived via WayBack Machine.
It's Page 1 of the thread where the big Japanese G1 cartoon timeline was first seen by the western fandom in October 2007, when everyone was shocked to see Car Robots included, BWII and Neo both set long after Beast Machines instead of before it, and the whole Japanese Primus retcon:

And the ATT version of the same topic from the same time period:
groups.google.com

People keep invoking Toei-G1 and its Pack-in Liner to a Mail-Away Promo Disk of a Radio Play of Revelation, and... the reflex kicks in. An allergic reaction to cognitohazards, if you will. 
The horse is dead. Has been for over a decade and a half. Kindly stop beating it. You're just spamming threads at this point.People keep invoking Toei-G1 and its Pack-in Liner to a Mail-Away Promo Disk of a Radio Play of Revelation, and... the reflex kicks in. An allergic reaction to cognitohazards, if you will.
And it's no more convoluted than this timeline.
So, having an opinion and expressing it humorously = spamming. Got it. 
I do in fact have a rationale for my opinion, though I feel that explaining it fully would fall somewhat outside the purview of this board. That said, it's easy enough to just blame Scorponok. And that crazy EDC lady.
(The irony is that I was once a weeby Super Robot Life Form Transformers fan, who thought that "Transform!" sounded best shouted in katakana. That was before the Dark Times....)

Jhiaxus's Obscure Transformers Website was always a favorite of mine.
Has anyone else had issues with Tripod sites being declared malicious by one's browser protection software?
Not on my end, no.
Have you tried switching between http and https in the URL to see if one works instead of the other? That might work.
I'd like to see an example, because I haven't encountered this.
So, I use Norton on my desktop, and AVG on my mobile -- which I usually use to post to the Allspark. Norton and CCleaner Browser had no problems going to a Tripod site, but trying to do so with Samsung Internet resulted in AVG flipping out and declaring it a malicious site. Confusing, to say the least. I suspect a false positive if Norton couldn't find anything wrong, but there we are.
Anyway, I'd likely have needed to put up an "at one's own risk" warning anyway, because the Lair o' Beasties (also known as the Javaberry Cafe) was definitely a unique take on Mainframe's saga (though less out-and-out pratfall-and-innuendo-laden as the World's Worst Fanfic). Alas, the proprietress edited out her first fanfic "D.A.M.I.J.D", which may truly be lost media at this point, and replaced it with a bizarre children's book with no continuity connections I can perceive. She still has most of the cast up to early season 3 (No Transmutate, Tigerhawk or Ravage, sadly). Beast Machines did not get included in spite of her updating the site through 2000 or so, although I dimly recall once seeing a draft write-up for Tankorr.
(I did give a copy of the faanfic "There's Something About Dinobot" to Scott McNeil at a local anime convention he attended. I hope he enjoyed it. He signed my MOC TM2 Dinobot with the phrase "TALK FOR YOU!" It was a good day. )

Firefox and Windows Defender don't have any concerns about that site.
I hate that they killed http so I can't browse any of these sites on old browsers for enhanced nostalgia.
Wait they did what
Yes, that is also a convoluted timeline.
OMG I forgot all about those! I loved the Energon cubes they came up with and how they snapped together.
Sabrblade- they posted the pics of my build attempt of Unicron, made out of two Death Star model Kits. Sigh, the golden days.
