    malicious software warning from bing and yahoo

    Looking for some insight as to why bing and yahoo would single out a product listing and give it a malicious software warning. After searching for ladybug magnet, I attempt to click on my site for

    http://www.ladybuggiftstore.com/Merc...Code=KA25054RD

    and get the following message:
    The link to this site is disabled because it might download malicious software that can harm your computer.

    Same for Yahoo. Only listing that I have found so far with the message. Any thoughts? Thanks

    Update. Yahoo seems to have all of my product listings as malicious, but none of my html pages. Quick example is to search for ladybug ornament on yahoo. It is at the top of the list with a red warning. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

      I checked your page against google safe browsing and didn't see anything:

      http://safebrowsing.clients.google.c...ggiftstore.com

      and I don't see anything specific in the pages. Do you know when this started?

        I have suspected an issue for the last month with yahoo, but just noticed the warning from bing and yahoo today. I removed a javascript from the global headers in miva that shows the thawte certificate seal. But agree with you, I didn't see anything that looked like code that should create a warning from these search engines.

          Try signing up for the bing toolbox: www.bing.com/toolbox/webmasters

          Once you register and authenticate your site, it should give you more details on where they think the issue is. Same thing for Yahoo: siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com

            I had authenticated with yahoo sometime in the past... no messages from them and nothing on the siteexplorer to indicate a problem. Authenticated with Bing today and didn't trigger any messages.
