I manage a website that was hacked a few months ago (I wasn't the webmaster then), it was running on Joomla. I have manages to redo the website with custom codes (php/mysql), but it still some visitors still complain that their AV blocks them from viewing the website.

I have also cleared the former database and anything related to it, contents and the likes.

My website is here

I have looked for malwares in Google Webmaster but it says there are non

Also I checked with Google Safe Browsing



Please what could the problem be.

End-user malware systems often use their own databases to identify issues on sites. Some systems use domain-wide blocks while others use page-specific blocks.

Also, I have seen a lag between de-listing at these sites and end user updates. In some AV products, the malware signatures may be local. If the user has not updated their AV in some time, your site could still be blocked.

First, what percentage of users are complaining? Perhaps it is a rather small number and more likely an end-user configuration issue than problem with your site.

Second, if you can get the information find out the AV version and URL they saw the warning.

Third, you may want to consider a service like: www.sucuri.net/
To scan your site.

Keep in mind that Google will only flag your site if it hits a page with malware. If that page is now crawled, then it could list you as clean while other services list your site as suspect.
