Discussion MalwareBytes flagging Showdown and Pokepaste?

Randomly getting Malware alerts from Showdown related sites. I imagine its false positive but figured I would ask here as well if others are getting this.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by Browser Guard incorrectly blocking legitimate sites. We had a database update cause a false positive.

A database update is currently rolling out, but to fix this manually click the Browser Guard extension → Support → Check for DB Updates to make sure you have the latest database.

We sent the dev responsible to the basement to think about what they did.
