Looks like theres trouble coming out of the Googleplex and ebaumsworld has landed right in the middle of it.  Recently some visitors to the site have been receiving the following warning when they visit certain pages on ebaumsworld:

 

Reported Attack Site!  This web site at www.ebaumsworld.com has been reported as an attack site and has been blocked based on your security preferences.

Attack sites try to install programs that steal private information, use your computer to attack others, or damage your system.

Some attack sites intentionally distribute harmful software, but many are compromised without the knowledge or permission of their owners.

 

eBaums World is part of the later group and we are doing everything possible to correct the situation.  Specifically, 1) we are testing all of our advertising partners' code to ensure they are not spreading malicious software programs.  2) We are asking any users who receive one of these messages send us an email at general [at] ebaumsworld.com with the address of the page pasted into the body of the email.  

Thank you to all the users who made us aware of this issue.  Additionally, eBaums World takes user security seriously and is working around the clock to make the site secure.
