    The diagnostic page lists:
    Of the 1 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 1 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2009-05-28, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2009-05-28.

    Whenever you upgrade/install new plugin, theme or wordpress itself with the help of any script..it will automatically add iframe code in the index file of the blog...

    Thanks,

    Shane G.
