CraigRaw was suggesting reporting the site to GoDaddy, if you have a couple od minutes to spare.
Here's the Godaddy abuse report, probably the best place: https://supportcenter.godaddy.com/AbuseReport

Always do either one of these:
  • Build the software from source
  • Download the binaries from the software repository and verify their gpg signatures and checksums
  • Install it using your OS' native package manager from their trusted package repositories.
