  Hi

  A load of people have told me that this link has Malware. I can’t find anything. And how on earth could it have if it is a wordpress.com account and not something I have made myself? I haven’t added anything in the last few days. Please help.

  http://ow.ly/wEi0 is the link being reported

  Ran a check using the Norton Site safety. If you trust these things, then http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=http:%2F%2Fow.ly%2FwEi0 (Notice it’s the ow.ly link, not the WP.com link)

  You might want to ask the people reporting the issue what AV program/Firewall they’re running.

  Cheers!
