When I google the horn shoppe I get this: This site may be hacked.

Provided the contact info is OK, who cares? It isn't like they have a tab to "order online."

Probably shows as "hacked" because Google sees the "home" link is improper (links to Ed's actual desktop - i.e.: nowhere...)

Thanks for the heads up but it is fine. I checked all links and they all go where they should. The way it is set up, hacking it is not really going get anyone anywhere except to annoy me. If you put the pointer on a link you can see at the bottom where it wants to send you....if it does not send you to another place all is good since that is the only way to get into your box. I have no online ordering (as previously stated).

It's a cheesy site and always will be....it tells what folks need.

Use "Startpage" for a search and you will not see the message and your IP address will not be recorded either. I seldom use google but will go through the hoops to have the message removed.

Thanks again and I understand the concern!

The link marked "Home" is this:

file:///C:/Documents and Settings/Ed Schilling/Desktop/index.html

That would probably pull up fine for you, but for anyone else, it doesn't redirect anywhere.

Thanks David! I had no idea. It's been that way since day one and you're the only fellow that has noticed or at least told me! I reckon I'll try and fix that one day!

No worries! :) If nobody else noticed... not really an issue, posted on August 1, 2014 at 07:42:31

Since your page loads just fine, and clicking on that link doesn't disrupt anything - really doesn't constitute much of a problem, does it?

I was just being a technical nit-picker. :)

BUT, that little technicality COULD possibly be why Google says your page has been "hacked."
