Looks like McAfee has a false positive on their hands. Even worse is that page is not even live anymore.

If you have an account on SiteAdvisor, do you mind posting a link to the virustotal analysis and how this is a false positive. I will go after Siteadvisor to fix this.

Thanks

I do have an account with them but have never posted there, there are already good reviews with one negative from what I can gather.

If you think it will help I'll post a reply, what do you want to be said?
