    I recieved this this not ethis morning. I am not aware of this at all and certainly do not want to be construed as a phishing scheme, but I am not sure how to fix this. I can't even find this page or associated unique urls??

    Does anyone have any ideas? Many thanks!


    Dear site owner or webmaster of internetce.com,

    We recently discovered that some pages on your site look like a possible phishing attack, in which users are encouraged to give up sensitive information such as login credentials or banking information. We have begun showing a warning page to users who visit this site in certain browsers that receive anti-phishing data from Google, as well as users redirected to this site from various Google properties.

    Below are one or more example URLs on your site which may be part of a phishing attack:

    http://blog.internetce .com/~payeagen/fichieur.fr/webscrcmd=_login-done&login_access=1190737782.htm

    Here is a link to a sample warning page:
    http://www.google.com/interstitial?...crcmd=_login-done&login_access=1190737782.htm

    We strongly encourage you to investigate this immediately to protect users who are being directed to a suspected phishing attack being hosted on your web site. Although some sites intentionally host such attacks, in many cases the webmaster is unaware because:

    1) the site was compromised
    2) the site doesn't monitor for malicious user-contributed content

    If your site was compromised, it's important to not only remove the content involved in the phishing attack, but to also identify and fix the vulnerability that enabled such content to be placed on your site. We suggest contacting your hosting provider if you are unsure of how to proceed.

    Once you've secured your site, and removed the content involved in the suspected phishing attack, or if you believe we have made an error and this is not actually a phishing attack, you can request that the warning be removed by visiting
    http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_error/?tpl=emailer
    and reporting an "incorrect forgery alert." We will review this request and take the appropriate actions.

    Sincerely,
    Google Search Quality Team

    Do you have any pop-up, "to download" stuff, DirectX on you website? Review your site carefully and follow the steps Google asked you to follow.

    If you have a dedicated server/VPS, I would advise if you cannot find the file locations, contact a security expert to resolve it for you, It will cost money, but it will be worth it in the end, or find someone nice enough to do it for free, Upon saying that, Don't just give your details to anyone, You will probably find your without a server very quickly.

    If you are using a shared account, or purchasing hosting through a company, Report it to them, It's their responsibility.

    Thanks for the advice everyone. That page doesnt seem to exist on my site so I am not sure how to resolve it. I have sent a message to my host and to google. Hopefully I'll have it squashed soon..

    Cheers!
