"This site may harm your computer." is the message I got from google when someone Googled my site,
My web host scanned for malware and the results came back clean.
I submitted a review to Google webmaster tools multiple times and it always failed.
i manually updated all files and plugins but the review still failed.Finally I went to https://aw-snap.info/file-viewer/ and discovered malware in header.php of genesis framework. So replaced genesis with the latest framework theme.
Resubmitted for review...holding my breath

Any tips..let me know.What did your webhost use to scan for malware?
I suggest you install Wordfence and scan for malware. You may have a injection of a link which came through a outdated plugin so make sure all your plugins are updated and then reinstall a fresh copy of Genesis.
There is a good chance that your website has been hacked.
I would also install WordFence and run a system scan and proceed based on the results.

Yes I did that and found some malware which was removed.
I now get the message
"Congratulations! No security problems were detected by Wordfence."
however the header image still pulls from the old site at /devAny tips much appreciated

That has nothing to do with malware. Please start a new topic as that relates to migration and changing of links.
How do we deal with so many genesis plugins that appear to be abandoned! This is a nightmare. ARE THERE PLANS TO UPDATE. I have removed all that were possible but this is rather disappointing to find so many items left to become vulnerable.
This is found with wordfence this week 06-16-2017. This is really affecting the reputation of Genesis products.

Thank you Susan. Due to this thread mentioning the Wordfence defense plugin I thought it was relevant to inform the community of so many plugins that are not being maintained in this very threatening world of hackers. I have been hacked and the use of Wordfence has been critical to keeping my sites safe.
