How do I remove StopBadware? It has hosed one of my websites and won't go away.

The website I visit is norcalkayakanglers.com. StopBadware pops up telling me it is an attack site, where I had been repeatedly returning to the site several minutes before StopBadware appeared. Even after clicking to ignore the warning, StopBadware won't go away, and the website page is all screwed up.

Did you read this page? It explains why Google Safe Browsing is blocking it.

Yes I did. What is confusing is the page said there is nothing wrong. Or am I misreading the results? Thanks for the reply. I have notified the owner of the site, however.
