A friend of mine told me today that while using Firefox browser to visit my website, eshawdesign.com, his anti-virus Avast blocks the website and claims there is malware on the website. I tried to use googles Safe Browsing Site Status site to scan, but nothing comes back in results. Anyway you can point me in the right direction of how to fix this issue?

Hello, Sorry for the problems with your website possibly having problems with malware. When you have someone claim that your site is showing a malware indication from their protection software, the first thing you need are specifics: specifically what was the message indicating and where in the website did it happen? If you can't get those, you can submit a verified support ticket to the live technical support team to request a malware scan. This may not always immediately identify the problem. Sometimes, the issue is simply buried code within your website that hacker managed to place on your website. Please review this tutorial for steps to take when you think your site might have been hacked. I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.
