Is this due to people with viruses/compromised routers going to their home screen (google) and having that redirected to some malicious page?

Some of it could actually be hosted through code.google.com
ah good point, though github.io does not seem to have that problem http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=github.io
repost from another sub-thread [1]...

Someone briefly had a pointer to http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=code.goog..., which includes:

> Malicious software is hosted on 23 domain(s), including sms-bomber.googlecode.com/, gdata-issues.googlecode.com/, infojob.googlecode.com/.

I would actually compare it to github.com and github.io http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=github.co...
