I double checked the sites using Firefox, and even IE 7 from another machine, and the warning did not appear.  I disabled the Smarter Search feature in XMarks and the warning went away.

I have only installed XMarks on IE 8 so I don’t know if it is specific to IE 8 or is a problem with other browsers in general.

Update:  As per Colin below this issue has been fixed with version 1.0.7.  I installed this version and the warning no longer appears.  It is refreshing to have such a quick response.
