Re: Site is red, please help

All I can see is that TrustedSource classes it as a Malicious Site.

Possible reason : your site has iframes, which can be hijacked to deliver malware. Perhaps that happened on your site. It's coming up clean at the moment, but if there's some code that only delivers malicious content randomly that clean status could change at any time.

Results from checks -

GoDaddy WhoIs report (basic details, a starting point). GoDaddy servers have been flagged in the past because they host a malicious or hacked website, and then all the other sites are affected by the resulting downgrade of the server's reputation.

http://urlquery.net/report.php?id=4234229

Shows the iframes and what they're delivering at the time of the report (google_ads, betrad, ecrater)

The report also shows two other sites on the same server (rake-take(dot)com and margokelly(dot)info) are flagged for "Malicious CookieBomb javascript". rake-take also has an alert for "obfuscated document command - used in exploit kits".

If more than one site on the server has been hacked then your site is equally vulnerable. Maybe there's something there that the checkers aren't seeing.

Other results :

http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/topcityelectronics.com/

http://www.ipvoid.com/scan/184.168.193.47/

http://siteinspector.comodo.com/public/reports/16148189

Different checkers look for different things. Some only check for spam reports, others look at javascript, and so on.

Re: Site is red, please help

The referer is apparently legit. Someone on a German site had exactly this question in 2010 (you'll need to translate). The Google-translated explanation boils down to, "don't worry, it's normal".

Shows that GoDaddy is still using CGI scripting on its servers though, and if the server security's not done right an attacker can place executable scripts in the cgi-bin folder. If that's the case then any site on the server is vulnerable.
