    Works for me. Possibly a false positive from your firewall or AV.

    However, there is a current "driveby download" malware threat called Blackhole: might be worth doing a security scan, just in case.

    All's well for me, even AVG safe surf likes it.

    Clear your cache and browsing history, might be some relic of a file or cookie hanging around from previous visits when there was an issue.
