google warning

I was browsing trying to see what this SO Mod was about and did a Google search. The mods page www.10thsog.com came with a warning of badware being added by the sight. Here is what it said.

When people search for my site on Google, the search engine result instead links to a Google webpage that says there might be badware on my site. What does this mean?
Google has placed warnings in its search results for websites that its testing has determined to host or distribute badware. If a Google user searches for a site that Google has determined to be potentially dangerous, they will see a warning in the search results.
Currently, many sites that are the subject of Google's warnings have been the victims of a malicious hacking attack, in which code linking directly to badware through exploits was inserted onto an otherwise innocent, but poorly secured, website. In other cases, a website with no intention to distribute badware hosts content (such as ads or hit counters) provided by a third party, and can inadvertently distribute badware through that content. If you are confused about why your site has a Google warning, then there are strong odds that your site has experienced one of the above situations.

To remove the warning, you will need to discover what code on your site caused Google to flag your site, and then clean and secure your site.

Once your site is certain to be clean and secure, there are three ways the Google warning can be removed. Google periodically re-scans the sites it has previously flagged, so you can choose to wait for this re-scan. Please note that there is no set schedule for these re-scans.

Alternately, you can submit a request for review to StopBadware, using our Request for Review form. While StopBadware cannot guarantee a specific length of time to process a review, submitting a request actively puts your site in line to be re-scanned. Working with our partners at Google, we respond to each request for review as quickly as is reasonably possible.

Lastly, as of August 2007 Google makes it possible for verified website owners logged in to its Webmaster Tools console to request reviews directly through that console. Please note that reviews requested through Google’s Webmaster Tools are administered entirely by Google, not by StopBadware.

Google has an information page for users of its web search who are curious about the warnings, and another for owners of sites that are the subject of warnings .

It does get annoying when I try to visit a site that Google says is bad - but very well it's not... lol.
