I touched upon OLD MAN's posted link and it hit me again.

Nasty bugger.
Watch out for it.

For what it’s worth, Safari on my Mac threw up the same kind of message. I can’t see anything in the source which looks overly suspicious, but at the same time it’s possible that something is (or was) going on on the server to flag the bad behaviour.

This is where you need to site’s admin to give the server a bloody good going over to make sure that it has not compromised.

Ditto - except I didn't get to see the whole thing as I was on the phone at the time.

Doing a quick Google on the subject, it could be that there is some advertising JavaScript that}s triggering the warning.

I just ran a complete PC-cillin virus scan on my computer. Typically the scans come up clean or have very few incidents. But this time, it detected 17 incidents. 14 were cookies and 3 were adware. I'm not sure what is going on here but I will be doing scans several times a day to monitor this.

I have sent an e-mail to Julian on this. Let's see if he responds to this very serious issue.

I got the message now when trying to logon that the website had been reported to Micro$oft as containing some malware. But McAfee hasn't picked up anything ... must be some link or thread that I didn't open.

Well, I just got it about an hour ago ... McAfee didn't pick up anything, but "XP Internet Security" was now on my computer, and blocking IE, trying to get me to buy their BS product, etc., etc.
