The registrar for the domain is a chap in Ontario, Canada. The IP address for the site is part of a block allocated to an outfit in Absecon, NJ in the US.

Symantec Corporate A/V has no problem with a test download of the B&N ebook converter package. (Downloads come from Softpedia, which is a reputable repository who checks stuff on their end.)

I don't have any commercial offerings at hand to test the conversion on, but I'm not especially concerned about simply visiting the site.

Does Norton IS give any details of why it thinks the site is suspicious?
