Aw, man
After losing some friends and family members, I've been thinking about the web properties we leave behind for quite some time now.
Scrambled Edd leaves behind a website - eddsworld.co.uk - that currently resists visitors because of a malware alert, probably resulting from some spamming twunt injecting naughties via his blog. (Excerpt from Google report: 'Of the 102 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 3 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2012-03-27, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2012-03-15.')
Perhaps with the right contacts/permissions, this is something we can tidy up and sort out on behalf of his loved ones so Scrambled Edd's site can serve as a reminder of what a talented and clever chap he was, instead of a platform for some spamming tossbag.

The virus is very real. My sad-looking laptop with its reamed bootsector can vouch for it

According to his twitter, I think
It got rectified and is just awaiting a rescan by Google.
Hope his friends/family keep the domain and hosting running.

Sorry about the Malware threat currently on my site, the problem should be fixed, just need to wait for the warning to be removed by Google

I hate to be a wet blanket
but that was on 8 march...
https://twitter.com/#!/eddsworld/status/177898687194861569
... and according to Google 'the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2012-03-15' (i.e. a week later)
So the rescan has happened and there's still some cleaning up to be done.

I'm not going near it on my work machine
but if it's a wordpress site I've had experience of these buggers

I know someone who used wordpress
Site ended up with several GB of porn hidden on it. Not his, either.

fuckers, I am suffering the same problem for one of my (non b3ta) sites
I would happily beat any hacker responsible for doing this to Edd's unconscious

I was tempted to repost the zombie pic I did for him, as I'm pretty certain he'd be amused
but it's always a tricky one in these circumstances. So for Edd:

Your first pic choked me up.
I scanned down to this one and the floodgates opened. I can barely see right now. Thanks for the lovely tributes.

Is that his mouth, or is it just showing the width of his face?
And yes, RIP Edd, quite an inspiring guy.

his smile also works as a measuring device for just how massively upbeat and inspiring he was to the very end

Fuck and fuck
The guy had a talent and wit we could use a lot more of. His animations always lent a shine to my day. Rest in peace.
