Folks,
This was the problem:
On the host GoDaddy USA server, at the level above my "karinya" domain,
the .htaccess file had been attacked and changed so that it pointed to a
malware site. It had been done cleverly so that normal visitors were not
re-directed to the malware site, but anyone visiting from a Google
referral *was*. That meant anyone accessing the site directly - for
example someone trying to track down the problem - would think all was well.
Google did *not* find any malware on my site - it simply spotted the
re-direction to a malware site. But to be sure I will probably now
re-upload the whole of my site from a known clean local copy.
The top level .htaccess file has now been restored and the password
access - which was already pretty strong - made even stronger.
I'm confident the site is now OK, but it may take a while for the
changes to be reflected on Google.
73,
Steve G3TXQ
