There is 4 areas of the site that Google reports suspected malware. These sections are being scanned and cleaned to make sure there is nothing on here and it is cleaned up. We do our best to make sure the site is clean and free of all malware and viruses so it is totally safe and and make sure the software is up to date so these vulnerabilities are not there for the said hackers to access the site and inject unwanted malware.

something somewhere on this site installs an "offerswizard" program into my computer. I'll be browsing threads when all of a sudden a bing search bar appears over the header of the page and there are hyperlinks in the text of posts. I have to go into "add or remove programs" to get rid of it

Worked on this all day, Fixed. The weird thing is we had a message that we had malware from the automated systems at google. Worked on scans all day, I was doing them and the web host was doing scans as well. Never found anything. In the meantime had google rescan the site and there was nothing anywhere. Hmmm, its not in the ads on here from vendors that was affected, but was the malware that was found by there system on the google ads that occasionally show up on here? Its a mystery as now google has deemed the site to be safe.

Well it would have been definitely someone intelligent considering the impact
