Malware on PPJN?

Everytime I try logging into ppjn.com my browser shouts at me saying that this site hosts Malware.
Not great. Anyone know what the malware is? Is it harmful?

Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page for ppjn.com

Alternative points of view...

Norton Safe Web, from Symantec - report for ppjn.com

ppjn.com | McAfee SiteAdvisor Software ? Website Safety Ratings and Secure Search

AVG Online Virus Scanner | Scan Web Pages | AVG LinkScanner Drop Zone

Or one tool that appears to be able to summarise some of the above....

Online Link Scan - Virus, Trojan, Adware and Malware Scanner

Caveat emptor.

Well, I am using IE8 with Crawler installed. It has no objection to www.ppjn.com and I know for a fact that my free copy of AVAST is very good at blocking sites containing viruses. That software made not a murmer either. Sounds like it is something you have (inadvertantly) downloaded which doesn't want you to look at that site.

P.P.

I'm using Firefox 3.6, and any attempt to connect to the site linked above returns a simple message stating it has been reported as an attack site and blocked.
Doesn't mean it's hosting malware right now, of course, only that it has done. Most likely unintentionally.

I just clicked on ppjn.com and got a red block telling me that
"This web page at www.ppjn.com has been reported as an attack page and has been blocked based on your security preferences."

I don't take the risk with pages like that.
