Yep, I've already contacted them to request we're removed from their blacklist, but I suspect it relies on Toby contacting Google first and he's away from his computer at the moment.

I'm confident that this is a non-issue and you can carry on using the site as usual.

Trouble is, only way to find out that you can still use it is to ignore the warnings and use it anyway  :tease:

IPS Alert Name,Web Attack: Java CVE-2013-2423 RCE

Just cleared this one as well.  Took two full scans and disabling Java to nuke it.

In other news, I recently had my (dormant) Yahoo! account compromised and have since been spammed from other cavers' Yahoo! accounts.  See here

Very true Kay :)

I recommend using Sandboxie for this sort of thing if it happens again...you can then proceed to ignore all the virus/malware warnings safe in the knowledge that your computer can't be compromised.
