Malware warnings on vendor sites

As I did some research yesterday for ordering Spanish materials from Puvill, 
I got a warning that Russian malware authors had poisoned the site and that 
my computer might get infected if I continued. Have any others had the same 
experience with this or other sites? Are there suggestions about what to do 
when this happens? I know from reading the computer press that the warning 
was most likely legitimate since last year the bad guys took over the Taylor 
and Francis site. 

Thanks.
