Reported Attack Site!

Okay so my browser says this is a reported attack site, and a warning comes up anytime I try to navigate around the site. It's very tedious. Anyone else having this problem (for the second time)?

Yeah, I'm having the same problem too. Safari says it has Malware or some shit like that, so I'm using Opera to avoid it for now.

It's because of a script that has been added onto the front page I believe. If you get prompted to install Flash Player then DON'T it is mostly like malware. Mac OS and Linux OS users should be fine from it but stil. don't download it but I'm pretty sure Jake would have gotten rid of that by now.

Right, if it's annoying peeople then do the following right now if you use Firefox.
"Tools" -> "Preferences" -"Security" -> Uncheck "Report Attack Site".
Be sure to put it back on when this problem is fixed then.

V fixed it. I'm about to make sure it never happens again.
APPARENTLY. Some of these malware infections can be caused by an exploit in Adobe Acrobat version 8.1.2 or older. So... If you are using is, update to the latest version, 9.1 or greater.

Claims the site is clean.
Another thing i've just noticed... V's wordpress installation over at alwaysfallingdown.com seems to have gone rogue and is using more cpu time than it should be... so... i'm still investigating.
