At my job the computers have some sort of filtering program that blocks potentially malicious sites or anything you shouldn't be looking at or that might pop up unknowingly.
I usually shop Rockin' Ron's and have never had a problem at home or at work. However, today I tried to pull up his webpage and it's blocked. My job's program says it is a medium risk and is known to be malicious. Two things, odd because I was just on his site from the same computer on Friday and the other is ....well this just sucks. C'mon, that's Rockin' Ron's! Apparently something is up though. Could be spyware that he is unaware of. (?)

Is it a company only filter or is it something bigger like WOT or some other third party program? If it's bigger than a company only filter definitely get in touch with him (by PHONE!) and let him know so he can get his site fixed. Even if it's a false positive he should know so he can get himself taken off the 'terrorist' list, as it were.
I just Googled him so I could see his Web of Trust score. It says he doesn't have a reputation score yet. Maybe your computer software is just being overly cautious. Let Ron know though.
