I have also receive virus warnings from the site. There is both a Trojan Horse IFrame-EZ[Trj] and Virus/Worm Iframe-inf.
Their server might be compromised and they are not aware of it.
The best advice it to make sure that your Antivirus and Browser are updated very often. |

If you are using Firefox or Chrome, you may get that on a few sites. Their website got injected with the martuz virus which has been spreading rapidly lately. The computer that they are using to update their website is infected with that trojan. What it does is that it sniffs the FTP port scanning for their server ftp username & password. Once it gets the password, it injects their source files with malicious codes. That's why you are getting that alert. The site can then be remotely be used to infect users computers with spyware and other crapware. How to fix ? View your source files, normally on the footer & remove the malicious codes. Change your FTP password and run an antispyware scan of the computer used to update the website. The best way to ensure that your website is not compromised with such trojans is to connect using SFTP(encrypts traffic) when possible.
