Re: Malware Site

RTFM-style answer:

First, figure out a little about the site... like who owns the domain
and where is it hosted?

$ whois sutterhealth.org

If you want to be nice, pick up the phone and call the Sutter Health
folks and let them know -- their site may have been cracked and they may
be oblivious. If you want to be more formal, send email to
[email protected], [email protected], and
[email protected] detailing your findings.

If they're unresponsive, given the site appears to be hosted in the
U.S., notify the Federal Trade Commission. Not like they'll do anything
about it, but that's the procedure.

You can also report the URI to folks like SpamCop who will report it to
the same abuse contacts I listed, and if they're unresponsive, add it to
their URIBL and such.
