"System Check" Malware on theaudiocritic.com
I'm running windows security essentials and Trusteer Rapport (browser protector) When I did a google search with firefox and clicked on the site theaudiocritic.com trusteer rapport alerted me but failed to block the site. It installed a nasty "system check" malware. Very hard to remove. Superantispyware found and removed it.
Is there somewhere I can report this site?
I have since scanned with malwarebytes and iobit malware fighter and they report no threats. I also ran a rootkit detecter no rootkits.
Now I'm wondering if I need something more powerful than windows security essentials.
What is reccomended to clean and protect my system?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.Waynezo-Windows 7 Pro/Core i7 920

I went to the site and got no malware. I use Norton DNS so if it is a bad site it won't let me through.Last edited by Taxmancometh; March 28th, 2012 at 03:05 PM.

Might be the site itself was legit but they had been attacked or something else was going on there. There should be report functions built into any browser but usually those are for while you are on the site. The url for the main google/firefox page is here Report a Suspected Web Forgery
Just enter the url of the bad site and report away
