Just letting you know..

I decided to switch on the let Google warn me of phishing and malware websites and when I came here I got a big red page warning that says...

The site ahead contains harmful programs

I get this message all the time on Chrome, since I started visiting the site about a month ago.

I really think this website should be fully scanned.
This is not a good look for new visitors.
I run a hosting business and know very well that this IS a serious message.
Can we have an answer as to what is going to be done about it?
I don't mind downloading the website and scanning the files for you if needed but something needs to be done...
Has anyone read this?? You can't ignore it. Something needs to be done urgently.
Come on Tony..

10 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent.

This is really strange because there is NOTHING OF MALICIOUS in the forum bro..! Not even exist banners here that maybe causes these FALSE ALARMS.
I joined the site on Dec 2012, I tested with various browsers, Explorer, Firefox, Cometbird and various antivirus programs and NEVER had this problem.
I think it's all about Chrome and its last updates.

Well I have come across this message before and in fact very recently and DID find viruses on a customers website.
What scans or checks have been made?
That's what we should know.

What I did is zip and download the complete website to desktop and scan with Avast.
It found viruses in my customers website.

Has this at least been done or anything at all?

The only problem was with the installer that included adware/malicious programs. But now that the installer is clear (months ago) the users not have to worry anymore. Really don't you think that is strange that ONLY Chrome gives you these alarms!!?? Tony has made virus tests for the site and the program itself and I know for sure that is 100% CLEAN.

Very strange but also strange that it is just this website.
Also the the dates are still very recent.
At least he has checked.

Maybe post the question on a Google forum?

JimKing and Tony.
I got this reply.
I think you need to act on this urgently..

Hi djpete,

The Google safebrowsing tool still reports found issues for this site.

You might want to check for any suspicious scripts linked in the source.
Sometimes you might find them injected into the source code of the page near the end,
which is where I saw this one on your home page.

< div style=" display: none ">
< sc<200b>ript src=hxxp://s25.cnzz.com/stat.php?id=4O33716&web_id=4O33716" language="Javasc<200b>ript"> < /sc<200b>ript>
< /div>

Hope that helps,
Tim
