Default Web attack

Today every time I return to the home page Norton tells me it blocked a web attack blackhole toolkit website 12. I never had it do this before. Is anyone else's anti-virus picking up on this?

I thought it was just me but I don't have a problem with any other site. Just this one.

Got that yesterday too. With AVG. Ran a scan which was clean and then tried again. Worked fine after that. 1st time I had it happen and it did it 3 times in a row.

I had the same message as others. Norton blocked an attack from Blackhole... I'll let the mods know.

It's still doing it to me. I can make Norton quit telling me about it but that doesn't make the problem go away.

Getting it again. It won't allow me in thru the main page. Had to Google and enter thru Polaris. (The others probably would have worked too.) Page grays and window says there's a threat. The name is " exploit blackhole exploit kit (type 2094)" . Closing the window still won't get me in.

If I refresh the page it will pop up again every time. This has only been going on a few days.

Sure looks like the site has been hacked, mods please look into it.
