Good news. I just checked the site again, and there were no security alerts of any kind.  (And that's with Firebox set to block reported attack sites.)  So it would appear that earthlink resolved the problem. 

Thanks, everyone, for the informative help!

Maybe you need to run CCleaner to clean out the Temporary Internet Folder (TIF is what it is called in IE)

Is that different from clearing the cache?

No, just a different term, browser cache is more associated with firefox's and other browsers temporary internet files.
