    It is the adverts on the website.

    I found info on it here: http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=3694

    EyeWonder.com ad serving domains were erroneously tagged as a malicious domain by the automated systems at Google. The automated Google system detected some malicious code on a different eyewonder domain than where ads are served, which was affected by a Coldfusion security hole which, when discovered, was quickly solved by Eyewonder. Google incorrectly flagged ALL of eyewonder.com as a malicious threat to users, when in fact the code was not in any way acting maliciously towards users or the sites on which the ads were serving and not any real threat. While a small amount of Eyewonder's ad delivery was effected by this malicious attack, EyeWonder was not responsible for this code, no users were in danger of being maliciously attacked, and that the situation was quickly identified, addressed and resolved by EyeWonder. The automated system has not yet cleared the domain eyewonder.com even though the issue has been resolved by Eyewonder. Google can prevent this issue by going forward by not blanket-marketing all subdomains as malicious and focus only on the affected subdomain.
