I just got a call from one of my clients that this message comes up in the search engines today and is effecting opening their site:


This site may harm your computer.



Both sites are in Wordpress.

      Let HG scan your sites and remove any malware.

      Then change your FTP password right away.

    Hmm wonder which HG server you were on, there have been a ton of attacks in the last week. Glad it's taken care of.

    I think that its interesting that the first thing someone thinks of upon attack/problem is to post a message on WF before even calling the hosting company.

      Its more likely to get a quicker response than the hosting companies will give you.
