Got an email from this site hosterwebsafe.com and it said they had done a security analysis of my server and there were some issues. They had a link to click in order to see a free report... So I click on it and it says it's not viewable in Opera and that I need to use IE. That was a big red flag for me so I checked the source (spoofing IE). Russian email and the javascript code that gets included is "encoded" to obscure what's in it.

High probablity it's something bad but if someone ones to test it on a spare machine and let us know for sure, that would be great.
