CalGunLawyers.com marked as malware site

So I'm doing a little research on the active cases and click on this link from google...

I get the google warning that says this site may harm your computer, with no link to "visit anyway". I cut the link in and then McAfee gives me the same warning.
Is this the anti's messing with us?

According to google on 6-14-12 this site was downloading and installing malware to people's computers. It happens. I think usually it's just forum software or whatever that has been hacked to spread malware.

The antigun crowd are not boogeymen. They're a very poorly funded, unpopular, politically unwanted group of lobbyists. They don't bend google to their will.

Anti's numbers are quite small. It'd be surprising if they were able to hack calgunlawyers to create this issue. All it takes is one good geek though so who knows. Firefox tells me its a dangerous site but I went ahead and ignored the warning anyway because I run linux rather than windows or osx. The website still works fine, but windows users especially should take caution that it may cause problems.

The site was hacked, but has been fixed. We are now working with Google to resolve the classification.

any site can be used as a launch platform. i've been hit twice lately from trusted sites. there's been an outbreak of the fake antivirus trojan. the suckage was epic.
