Chris, no problem and we can appreciate the concern, thank you for bringing up the subject. You can report this to your antivirus provider as a false positive if it alerts you again.

Can you talk a bit to what problems you're encountering on your site? Feel free to contact us off the blog if you'd prefer: support@sucuri.net

Thanks for the reply. Please excuse my ignorance–I suck at anything related to computers. At least the AV thing is working good. Please feel free to remove these messages if you find that to be appropriate.

Now, about my site…

Thanks for the comment Chris. The warning you're receiving is a false positive.

When we write a post we typically include a sample of what the malicious code may look like (merely showing people what attacked them) just like in the analysis above.

I stumbled onto this site in my search to find help fixing my wordpress based site. I'm not trying to bash you here in your comments section, but I have to be honest and say that it makes me very nervous for my computer's safety, and perhaps even more so to do business with you because when I arrived at this particular page, my Avast AV security pops up for the first time ever since I've had it (got it in the last 2 weeks or so), and says out loud, "Threat has been detected".

It opens a small notification window that reads:
"TROJAN HORSE BLOCKED"
avast! Web Shield has blocked a threat.
No further action is required.
Object: http://blog.sucuri.net/2010/02/georgia-government…
Infection:PHP:Small-F{Trj}
Action: Connection Aborted
The threat was detected and blocked while downloading an item from the web.

Yikes! What is up with this?

What to do about my site? Ugh…
