Re: Why is our nonprofit website getting security warnings by McAfee users?

According to the SiteAdvisor site page this site is flagged for some reason by TrustedSource. The Trustedsource page shows the Medium-Risk rating but no reason for it. Sucuri says the site is mostly okay, although you should double-check the output (it carries a warning about something on the site) - see

http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/artcrimeresearch.org

You'll need to contact the SiteAdvisor team to ask about the reason for your site's rating - details of how to do so are in this document.

Thanks Hayton:

Read the documentation registered on their website and submitted a request to them to clarify at http://www.trustedsource.org/en/feedback/url?action=checksingle by selecting the product "SiteAdvisor".

I dont know whatthe problem is other than perhaps I send about 100 work emails a day and get a lot of spam as old staff addresses come to me.

Hopefully they will look at it again and change the raiting or at least tell me what we need to change to correct it.  Really doesn't look good when an organization that deals with art security has bad internet security ratings. 

Thanks for your help.

Moved to the SiteAdvisor sub-section as the most appropriate spot.
