Could you kindly follow these Guidelines/Instructions to resolve your issue:

I might add that creating a ticket with Trusted Source is much quicker.

As this seems business related.

Belay that move, Cap'n.

With the SiteAdvisor reorganisation this is all getting very confusing. I personally would vote for a new section for all SiteAdvisor / WebAdvisor / GTI issues, probably to go where GTI is now.

This is a site rating issue, and all of those go into the SiteAdvisor main section in Consumer. Accordingly I've moved the post back to Consumer (formerly Home & Home Office) > Web and Email Protection > SiteAdvisor >  Discussions

Posts for SiteAdvisor Enterprise issues should be only those that relate to the operation of the SiteAdvisor version for companies, which has far more functionality than the one for consumers.

Apologies for the digression, and on to the main point of the post : the site has been tested, so the Red rating was something picked up by TrustedSource in real-time. Whatever that was, it's been cleared. SiteAdvisor is showing a Green rating again.

WOT (WebOfTrust) though is, for unstated reasons, showing the site as Unsatisfactory, with an Amber circle.

Sucuri gives the site a clean bill of health, although I see the site has an iframe (inherently suspicious to SiteAdvisor) and is running Plesk 11.0, which needs to kept up to date because of successful attacks against Plesk in the recent past. The latest stable version is 12.0 according to the Plesk site.

Edit - Aha! Found it. I was about to sign off but here, I think, is what SiteAdvisor detected. You'd better get the web team to have a look at these files and make sure they're okay : this could be a false positive but you need to be sure.

More details are in the urlquery report for your site : https://urlquery.net/report.php?id=1427287097296

I can't spend any more time on this right now, I've got meetings all this afternoon; but I'll return to it later today. Always ready to go the extra mile for a local company.

An excellent idea and one which I coincidentally was thinking of suggesting myself, but will leave it to you.  Location to be decided though as I wasn't sure about that.

Actually, I was uncertain myself as to where the proper place the thread should be? Having said that...I concur with you, for your expertize in regards to Site Advisor I humbly say, dwarfs my knowledge
