I goofed up the link on purpose.

This is the website for the Texas State History Museum in Austin, TX.

I beleive it is a false positive.

I am not getting anything with online scanners, have tried 4

can you post a screenshot of the avast! popup ?

There appears to be an iframe in the menu.js file (that is what the alert is on), see image.

Avast isn't alone in detecting this, but not many others, http://www.virustotal.com/file-scan/report.html?id=bfdeb11410c1c12752a07aff097277e663e434c40ce3d820c581d076bab04951-1291764485.

I took a screenshot of the alert. Is there a way to upload it for you or would I need to find a place to host it? I don't currently use anything for that.

How can we be sure there is or isn't a threat?

Should I warn them that their website may have been compromised?

What operating system are you using

Look at Additional Options...  then Attach: then Browse...

I keep all my attachment pictures in My Pictures Folder.

A screenshot of the alert is unlikely to help as all it would show is the same information (but in a different form) as in the image I posted.

Aha...Additional Options. Didn't see that before. Thanks.

Agreed. The screenshot of the alert will not provide any additional information.

I know I've been seeing alerts about this for over a year.

Here's a thread from April of this year about the same website:
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=59015.0

A lot of people visit this website as the museum has an imax theater inside and you can look up the show times on the site.

What is the threat exactly?
