I am afraid this is a topic we may not be able to help you with here on the forums.  I would recommend contacting abuse@lunarpages.com to talk with the Lunarpages support team about this issue.  If you have any questions on how best to use these forums please see the green forum rules link in my signature.

So long as a site's contents do not violate US Federal or California state law, and are not causing technical problems for the server, LP does not care what's on the site. It is certainly possible that your site will end up on the same server as a porn site, which could result in all sites on that server being blocked in certain countries. Other countries block content all the time for all sorts of reasons, from political to cultural to moral, and it would be nearly impossible for LP to segregate sites by server to separate blocked ones from "harmless" ones. The only sure way to avoid this is to have your own server (VPS or dedicated) with its own IP address.

As for "the virus", if someone is using an LP site to deliberately spread infections, that is something that LP might close them down for. Otherwise, perhaps the site owner is unaware that the site has infected content? A polite note to the webmaster detailing what you've found (virus-wise), with a copy to support@lunarpages.com (or abuse@lunarpages.com) might be in order.

I am a customer and do not speak officially for Lunarpages.
