Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!

Hi spgSCOTT, thanks  for making that visible to us all, webmasters should read this article here: http://sandeepverma.wordpress.com/2011/01/30/how-to-clean-malware-from-website/
the issues summed up there:
Quote
The possible HOLES may be:
1. File/Folder permissions
2. Poor authentication for application
3. Cross-Site Scripting
4. Cross-Site Request Forgeries
5. Anti-Virus Software
6. File formats
7. Network “Firewalls/Filters”
8. Shell access & Logs

Webmasters should do a free scan at sucuri: http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/
and update and upgrade their vulnerable web apps, before they are taken to the test by less friendly minded people (malcreants),
also run a secunia online test to make sure you have the latest updates for all software:

This is what google has to say on the matter: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=163634
