Even Google makes mistakes
Since half an hour all of the Google search results are considered harmful for your computer. It looks like someone over at Google updated their search engine to a wrong untested version. I’m sure Google is already working hard to getting this fixed as soon as possible.
Google considering all websites to be harmful
Update 16:25 GMT+1: It looks like Google fixed the rather annoying bug, happy Googling!
Update 2: As all of you might know, it wasn’t Google’s fault. The problem started after an update of Google’s website blacklist which is provided by StopBadware.org. This non-profit company mistakenly added root (”/”) to their blacklist, which Google blindly copied to their server. For more information, read the full story of Google.
