I wonder if obtaining a digital certificate (if there isn't one already) for the website would help reduce the flagging?

Subject: Re: [Csnd] Csounds Site
The malicious code is not visible via Safari on the Mac.
However, since my job is that of an IT manager, i have recently encountered a very similar problem with a web site, where there was a case of javascript injection, and the script was programmed in a way that it only showed up on IE and Firefox ONLY on Windows.
The reason (so to speak) is that the hacker had in mind the less-than-perfect security provided by some flavors of the Windows operating system, and was used as a means to download and run some sort of virus on the client machine.
If this is the case, i think i have a very good idea on the cause and possible remedy.
