DA appears to be on Trend Micro's "dangerous" list...perhaps you should contact them?

Patrick & Alix,
Trend Micro's PCcillin identifies the Design Addict website as "dangerous" spy ware. It lists the actual web address as I have copied it below. Can you explain this? Should you contact Trend Micro and ask them to take DA off their "dangerous" list?

Hi dcwilson,
Thank you for the information. We have tried to check your link but we cannot open the page.
We will ask our web developper to find out about this tomorrow. But there is nothing to worry about. Our server is regularly scanned against spy ware etc... It seems that Trend Micro is only identifying adbrite advertising links which have nothing to do with Design Addict. We will ask why this sofware is overzealous and considering us as a dangerous spy ware!
