Everything is fine. Go back to your coffee.

If you have McAfee virus software, it's probably already warning you about malicious code on Ten Ton Hammer (and a number of other major sites) at the moment. The warning about this site is a false positive and is occurring due to an oversight in the latest McAfee update. The error is also affecting Ars Technica, which has the official explanation.

Shortly, someone at McAfee (a reader) told us that the problem was theirs. A flawed DAT filed got pushed out that is causing many of their customers to get bogus warnings that sites are running malicious code.

You can read the Ars Technica story here. In the meantime, don't panic. There's nothing here that will hurt your computer, and they should have it all sorted out soon. Want to chat about the insanity? Join the discussion.
