Yeah! Me too! I was just going to post a topic about this. EVERY. SINGLE. SEARCH. RESULT. will apparently harm my computer. I can't access any sites using Google as it thinks they're all a threat.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one experiencing this. Google must be messed up.

EDIT: I'm going to move this to General in the interest of getting more responses faster. It's weird how Chainer isn't affected by the rest of us here are. Perhaps some other GWers are immune?

Can you DESCRIBE THE RED X please cause I can't see certain images where I am (i.e. that one) and I'm curious as to why google is doing this shit.

I wonder how this brief albeit global occurence has affected the world - had it gone on a little longer I wonder if the economy would have been affected, sales would have gone down, mass paranoia, etc. Would have been interesting to see the real-world reaction to a problem caused by the 'almighty' Google.

Hmmm true that...I started using a 3rd party web broswer I had installed, but I just went back to the proprietary browser that came with the phone and everything seems fine. I tried googling something and it gave me a javascript error. Idk what this is about but I sure hope it doesn't happen again. mateui that would be some crazy shit! Google is practically everywhere now. It's just like seeing Microsoft fall over!

*starts talking about a problem with his google phone's google browser, assumes that's what everyone's talking about*

I would imagine it would of sent the global workforce into unexpected productivity, keeping people from goofing off on google and what not.

One google employee, disenfranchised with the human race, has decided that not a single person on the earth has a truly good heart, and deserves to "google" anything he or she desires, so he has punished us.
