The page essentially says "We believe this page is suspicious, and we have no evidence to back up that claim." EDIT: They must have updated it/ busted a cache. The page is now reporting some evidence.

funny it says "Of the 20 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 0 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2014-03-25, and suspicious content was never found on this site within the past 90 days." does zero count to be blocked?

  First, it's already been unblocked. Second, this is what it says at the above link: --SNIP-- What happened when Google visited this site? Of the 26 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 4 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2014-04-05, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2014-04-05. Malicious software is hosted on 1 domain(s), including zlubob.org/. --SNIP-- They're doing a good thing with this, and they're helping webmasters who can't help themselves.

      Well that's technically a correct statement. Try: chrome://net-internals/#dns Click "Clear host cache"

        Actually the issue was that I was using Google's DNS. When I disabled that, it worked just fine. But thanks for showing me the Chrome trick. As to the technically correct statement, don't you think that saying a site is a "known malware distributor" is a bit more sweeping than saying something more accurate like "we discovered malware on this site"? In other words, they are using the same language I would expect to see directed towards sites that have malicious intent and should never be visited.

        How should they word when the site is known to distribute malware? There is no difference between discovery and distribution, if you consider the method of discovery.

  Weird, I must have had a cached copy (which is really strange since Chrome was blocking Wired for me.)
