Hi, I'm the owner of www.greatdirectories.org
Firstly, I do not understand why my website has red mark
"McAfee TrustedSource web reputation analysis found potential security risks with this site. Use with extreme caution."
Moreover while trying to verify ownership I'm getting back the following:
"Error Submitting Site for Verification
It appears that the Web site greatdirectories.org (or www.greatdirectories.org) is returning an HTTP 2xx or 3xx status response code in the header of 404 pages.
We cannot verify a Web site that is configured this way because it allows anyone to verify themselves as the owner of your site. Please update your Web site server configuration to return 404 status codes in the headers for pages that do not exist. Once your site is configured this way then you can return and request a file name verification."
Is there any way that I can verify ownership? And how to get fair green mark?
Thanks,
David
Hi David,
we have retested your web site in Site Advisor/Trusted Source.
It's green now - http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/greatdirectories.org
Best regards, Peter
David,
Peter Meyer unfortunately didn't answer the second part of your question, about the HTTP return codes in 404 pages. I've looked back through the SiteAdvisor pages and I'm rather ashamed to admit that this question has been asked in the forums a number of times, and each time I've left it for an expert to pick up and deal with ... and no-one ever has. So you're not the first to ask, but I'm going to see to it that this time we get an answer.
I've put a request in one of the internal tech help sections asking about this, and I'll post any answer as soon as it comes through. It would have to be Easter, though, when everyone's disappeared for a break.
In the meantime, there is a hint in a previous post that a blank verification file (name unknown) has to be downloaded (from somewhere) and placed in the root directory of the server. I couldn't find anything more than that.

I am also have problem with verification at Web Site Owner Verification Process with my site http://led-displays.ru
I am tried to verify another sites and find that all tested sites have same result!
As that:
It appears that the Web site google.ru (or www.google.ru) is returning an HTTP 2xx or 3xx status response code in the header of 404 pages. We cannot verify a Web site that is configured this way because it allows anyone to verify themselves as the owner of your site. Please update your Web site server configuration to return 404 status codes in the headers for pages that do not exist. Once your site is configured this way then you can return and request a file name verification.
