I had a similar warning two days ago when I tried to log on to Sangeethapriya site via Firefox. However, when I tried through Explorer, there was no such warning and I browsed through the web site with no noticeable attack.

The site is now down. No idea when it will be resurrected.

Too much input/output activity through uploads and downloads = perfect recipe for viral/trojan infections.

The site is up and running normally for the past 2 days.
Google has also lifted the warning.

Re: Sangeethapriya RTP page blocked by Google as attack site
Yes Thanks! It is however a periodic headache to have these blockages. Is there a direct solution without going through the googel/yahoo gateways?

Re: Sangeethapriya RTP page blocked by Google as attack site
Google/yahoo don't block you. When I said Google blocked, it merely pointed out the danger. I could have ignored the warning and gone to the site. And if I do that on Internet Exploder, vishesham.
IE won't give the warning that Firefox pops up. It will happily install the virus/trojans free for me, if I don't have up to date anti-virus protection (and enabled.) Even Firefox is not completely safe. Unfortunately, some of the security settings are beyond normal users.
Every day more and more computers join the millions of compromised computers on the internet. These are remotely controlled by organized criminal gangs for committing all sorts of crime. See this link to see the level of criminal sophistication:

So, the problem is not Google blocking the site but the infected website itself.

When I was using Windows, after every few months, the computer became unusable due to all types unwanted types of stuff getting installed. I switched to Ubuntu and so far good. As of now, I am happy that Ubuntu is not popular enough. Familiarity breeds virus
