 * I was alerted by a visitor that my site could not be accessed due to a virus.
   Sure enough when I try to visit my site, [http://blanehoward.com](http://blanehoward.com)
   I get a warning from AVG telling me that a threat was blocked. How can I go about
   removing the threat? From what I gathered in looking at other posts some malicious
   code has made its way into my website. Any suggestions on how I can remove this
   threat?
