You don't have to be evil to get on a Black List. Our entire corporation got on a blacklist once by a bad choice of email recipients by somebody on the fourth floor. Getting on one is largely automated but to get off, you need to know the particular systems operator currently vacationing in Ibiza. I'll send a note.

People sometimes click on BANNERS instead of download links.
Adsense banners SOMETIMES have malware.
People then think they've downloaded malware from MY website.
That's not the case.

We do receive reports directly, as stated on the website, at [email protected]

Just to reassure anyone coming to this page, here are some on-line checks:
Norton Safe Web: http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?u ... nzo.com.ar
McAfee Site Advisor: http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/buanzo.com.ar
Google diagnostic: http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diag ... nzo.com.ar
Web of trust: http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/buanzo.com.ar

These all classify the domain as safe, however as buanzo wrote, people should take care when they click on a link that they are clicking on the thing that they want to click on and that advise applies too ALL websites.

As I understand it, you can't get as far as to access the site and the big link, because ESET blocks access, in turn because some banner Adsense was supplying had malware and got reported to ESET.

The best way to resolve the problem seems to be to contact ESET.

I've contacted ESET LatinAmerica and they've forwarded my email to their malware analysis group. We shall see what happens.

Everyone is welcome to contact ESET, btw :)

We got removed from ESET blacklist:

Sepa disculpar las molestias ocacionadas.

Sorry for the spanish, that roughly translates to: "We analized your site, there's no malware or malicious rutines, therefore we will proceed to remove you from our blacklists and your site will be normally accessed by ESET users from then on. Excuse the problems.".
