Malware Site

I think one of your advertisers is a malware site. When I went to PitW today, I got hit by one of those fake AV worms.

Details, please. Which version of the site, and can you recall anything about the attack or the ads running at the time?

All WLP's PHP was hacked as part of a much larger spam/malware attack on DreamHost.

I think the malware is cleaned out now, but there still may be glitches; please bear with me.

Sorry I didn't respond to your other post, but you took the board down before I saw it. I don't think I would have been much help anyways, as Norton Internet Security blocked my access to the page as soon as I tried to load it, so I don't know what specificly caused it. When I went back though it was okay, which is why I had assumed an advertiser was the cause.
