GMP Performance website quick question

Greetings all. This might seem a silly question, but is the GMP Performance site "OK?" The reason I ask is that I was just going to look up a part and I got a message "Reported Attack Site" and was blocked by Google. I have never had this message before, and was just wondering if any of you had seen it.

I do not want to hurt the image of a good company, but the warning is a first for me. Thanks.

CMiYC is infamous around these parts
I get the same warning (when I visit with Firefox).

Here is what the Google advisory says:
"Of the 4 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 3 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2009-01-20, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2009-01-17."

So if you visited the site with an insecure browser like IE, you might want to run virus / spyware scan.

Just a note... this doesn't mean that the site itself is the one injecting malicious code. It is more likely a third party is using an exploit to do it. It would probably be a decent idea to warn the company that Google/Firefox is flagging the site.

Thanks--that's the one. I never used to get it with Firefox (on my apple) but there was a Firefox update lately. Just checked, and I do not get it on my PC with IE.

I am sure GMP will have it fixed--might scare off a customer or two.

No problem with XP Pro and IE 6. IE should be run with third party cookie acceptance turned off.
