I keep thinking I understand how to determine if a site is safe for me to visit or not... but I keep learning I know nothing.
So, my two part question is:
Is the issue that some/many webpages in the domain are very dangerous, but the primary page is not?
If I'm wrong, then please try to explain the discrepancy. PS, a few years ago it set off all sorts of "alarms" on my system so I won't go there anymore anyway.

Clear enough, but I'm about to talk to a group and encourage them to use Webroot and, if not, encourage them to use Brightcloud.

We'll need pass this one along to BrightCloud to have it looked at.
It is common for the root domain to be clean but have infected pages on the domain, but I don't believe that is the case here.
