  My computer is telling me that my blog is infected with malware. I can’t access it, and I’m worried that any visitors to the site are going to be infected. What should I do? Can you check it out for me? I don’t know how to remove malware.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  This is the message that I get:

  Hi there,

  I do not get this message from your site. Could you try clearing your cache? This could be something from your browser rather than your site itself. Additionally, try out a different browser (try Firefox, if you can).

  Here is more information about how to clear your cache:

  Let me know if that helps you!

  Thanks for responding. I was actually so worried about this on Friday, that I asked a friend who is web savvy to help me find the source. It was a photo from a post last week. We found it and deleted it from the blog.
