It means that the site contains malware.
And indeed, it does. And quite a lot.

system · 2007-07-27T16:50:03.000Z

so even visiting this sight is dangerous?

Vlk · 2007-07-27T16:51:31.000Z

Yes. On my test machine (XP SP2, all patches, IE7), it immediately started a download of a couple of Trojans… :o
Stay away from the site.

Was that caught by Avast Home? If not will Avast Home catch it? Maybe it’s time for me to buy Avast Pro ;D.

both version detect the same. The main difference is configuration options and a script blockr provider.

there is increasing number of attacks on web hosting sites (usually free/cheap hosts) to inject ‘malicious’ scripts into pages hosted there …

so if You got redirected or infected on till now safe site it this may be why
