it's just that your security software is saying that the site is infected!
but i think it's not. Go ahead & use that site.

And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it.

I'm having the same problem. This is the first time it has happened and there have been no changes in my anti virus software. I've been on the free exam papers site regularly in the last 3-4 months (because it's awesome). Not sure what's happening because I can't access any files (or see any files for that matter).

I've attached a file of what it looks like for me, screen stays the same after I press "close".

Looks like either FEP has been hacked and infected or the site has been reported to Microsoft by one of the exam boards as being 'unsafe' and so they've made the url a hazard.

I found a lot of crap in the footer. We had the same problem before. This is the third time. Solved now but will need some more security

Yes ignore it now. The search engines need to crawl us again
