Malware Detected on new domain?
I've put off buying my own domain for a while. I've skipped the Course 2 Lesson 1 about buying a domain.
Now that I had other financial situations out of the way I was able to finally buy my own domain. I watched the Course 2 Lesson 1 video. I followed every step of what Kyle was displaying just about.
After I transferred my site rubix website to my fresh new domain and clicked on the URL, there it was "Security Error" saying that this site contains malware and has been blocked by google.
I could not help but to have been distraught. I just quit my job so that I could focus more on undergrad school and getting sufficient income where I wouldn't have to worry financially.
Of course I panicked not only because I was worried someone was hacking my site but also because I assumed that this does not usually happen when switching to your own domain. Helpful as always the Live Chat supported me in fixing the problem, recommending me to the SiteRubix support.
SiteRubix recommended that I verify my site with Web Master in google. There I was able to see why google was performing the error on my URL. I've notified SiteRubix of the error and about half an hour later they suggested that I request a review. So I did and a few hours later I logged back into WA and clicked/ logged in to my site and Wala! no site error!!
I want to give a special thanks to NicheME and Annick for the advice and support!

Glad you got this issues sorted here and do know that most "malware" notifications like this are completely incorrect. Sites don't contact malware, browsers and your computer do and without actually downloading something onto your computer you are not going to get malware.
Nonetheless, sounds like all is sorted now Guy and if you have any further issues moving forward let us know. :)
