ichc_header_logoWe broke the story this morning that visitors of Mashable.com were being greeted with the Malicious Malware warning and can now report that the beloved icanhascheezburger has also been impacted.

So what we know now is the source of the malware, but what is unclear is the actual risk to you or your computer or how many larger media sites are impacted.

Of note, Google seems to be giving both Mashable and Icanhascheezburger a pass as both of their Google page rank remains in tact- what’s up with that?

We’ve reached out to Mashable for comment.

We’ll continue to follow the story.
