No, there is no malware on the site, there never has been, and there never will be. It's just the miner. (((Someone))) is conducting an organized attack on all the mainstream normie malware sites. I would encourage anyone running these to contact their customer support and complain.

If you are experiencing a warning from a malware provider not listed let me know and I'll tell you how to complain. If you whitelist the site on your provider, use this syntax:
https://kiwifarms.*/*

AVG Antivirus:
AVG refuses to correct their mistake. I strongly advise finding better antivirus.

Avast! Antivirus:
https://www.avast.com/support
https://www.avast.com/false-positive-file-form.php

uBlock Origin "Malware Domain" warning:
http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/contact.php

Kasperkey Antivrus:
https://support.kaspersky.com/
https://virusdesk.kaspersky.com/ (Says we're clean, so idk)

If your antivirus / antimalware is not throwing issues, do not say "works on x", because that gives people ideas.

Here's a couple of guides for adding exceptions for AVG and Avast, ended up installing AVG just to make it, and then @BillionBisonBucks contributed for the Avast one.

The very first step is to open AVG.
From there, look for the Menu in the top right and go into the settings.

Next, on the left hand side, click Components, and then click Customize on the Online Shield section

Doing that will greet you with the main page for the online shield, as seen below.

Go ahead and click 'Exceptions', then enter the following in the URL exclusion field https://kiwifarms.net*

Click Add

Which leaves your window looking like this.

Hit that green OK button and close on out of everything.
And there you have it, as simple as that, you've now Whitelisted the farms in AVG and you can continue about your business!

Shortform AVG
Settings -> Components -> Customize 'Online Shield' -> Exclusions -> Add 'https://kiwifarms.*/*'

Settings -> Components -> Customize 'Web Shield' -> Exclusions -> Add 'https://kiwifarms.*/*'

Make sure it's https, not just http, or you'll spend three minutes furiously shift-F5ing and wondering why it won't work. Like me.
 
Already did that when I posted about the false positive and put the main url on my exclusion list so Avast can shut up for now.

Similar to Avast as well.

Ublock origin is warning me that KF is trying to redirect to another site and it's warning me about Google ads on the site- no mention of malware. Once the site does load, it loads the site in a barebones format. Only happens on Firefox. Chrome and others seem to be loading fine without the warning.

I didn't realize people still used AVG. It's been absolute trash for years and years.

uBlock Origin is by far the most aggressive. To even use the site you have to thoroughly whitelist it.

I have it whitelisted. Not sure why it's suddenly saying KF has ads and is trying to redirect. It's works fine in every other browser I've tried but Firefox. Maybe it's just my settings in Firefox?

Edit: it's been whitelisted ever since the miner was introduced. The warning was new, started when I checked 15 min ago or so
