First of all, the couple of sentences in this page don't really mean anything, as far as I can tell. "Assembly language programming in scripting languages"? What is that supposed to mean? Anyway, I had never heard of this, which led me to do a quick Google search, and there doesn't seem to be anything on Google about this either. At least under this name.

  • Caution advised: The first page listed in the "Implementations" sources has been reported as a malware attack page by at least one anti-viral service. I know of an editor who uses Sandbox VM's to investigate this sort of stuff safely - I will approach him about opening the page and pasting it's text into subpage here for us to assess.

  • Alright, so thanks to the quick and generous assistance of the afore-mentioned editor, I have this to report:
"The 15th of this month Google found some malware on corepy.org. Here is a piece of HTML that was archived with the wayback machine. I think its clean now, it seems like they simply restored a backup that was made before the attack happened, but the website contains at least 7500 links (it is a mediawiki installation) so we are going to have to wait until Google checks it again to see if they cleaned it all up. The website looks like this in Chrome."
So it seems the page is likely clean, but with the image available for evaluative purposes, users should still apply caution and use their own discretion if navigating that site, as neither I nor the editor I consulted with are experts capable of determining that it has been completely cleaned.
