Overview

Symptom: Your site displays a suspicious site or malware warning page. The following are steps to remove your site from Google's list.

Instructions

For any website that has been marked as “suspicious” by Google, you will want to do the following:

1) First, setup Google Webmaster Tools for the site, which is fairly easy. Further instructions will be provided once you create an account and get logged in.

2) Remove any and all malicious content. Google’s own take on malware and hacked sites can be found here. Please also read this wiki article: Fix an infected website - in detail.

3) Request a “malware review” for the site via Google Webmaster Tools; details are available here.
