I was looking for information in google when I have introduced some words and then I can't visit any link in google. I mean, I look for the word 'free energy' and google shows the results, but when I click in one result, a google message appears:
If you visit this website, your computer can be damaged. ???
That message appears in any link I click.
I think google has blocked me because I was searching some 'dangerous keywords' about weapons.
Anyone can explain me what is happening?
Google bug: http://theregister.com/2009/01/31/google_malware_snafu/
I really doubt is a bug, because is keyword sensitive.
If I google Free Energy, Keppe Motor, Ufo, FEMA camps, I get the problem, but If you Google Britney Spears Boobs, nothing happens.
Weird!
Of course I slept right through it and when finding this post, could not test things out while this behavior was active.
I googled "free energy" and the 1st page shows (as the sample google images content) a picture of Archer Quinn and his thermo-enhancement device from a post on http://www.y2kers.com/2008/04/another-free-energy-steorn-disappointment/ (maybe there is something to this hack/cracked google thing).
The scary part of this is it seems the effect of filter testing.
Content requests are filtered through a list of keywords and then you're redirected to a page warning you about the content of the site. This is done as an added service to "protect" the Google client.
One reason an industry leader might have released such a bug on their production site is that it's employing a new filter (built partially from an "working" filter code) to filter your search criteria for specific terms and some piece of code was left in so when the filter was triggered, it does what it was built to do (but perhaps not for this particular instance) and redirects you.
But why would you filter for keywords like "free energy, etc."?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..........

Yeah, that is exactly was happening to me.
After I tried with common words like electricity, air, or beach... and I get the same 'bad' result.
I have just tried again with the 'dangerous keywords' and It seems that it was a google bug. Now all works ok.
Found on another site...this search engine guarantees privacy unlike google and yahoo.

I would be wary of Google, they keep files on all your searches so everything you look up is recorded and can be looked up. Yahoo and other search engines do not keep files on you. Google has been called the World's biggest surveillance network before...
All your searches are belong to us.
... and please dont buy google mobile phones!
all you voice are belong to us.
same with youtube btw.
I have had the same error, it's just a temporary problem, 5 mins later all was fine and my clicks were rewarded.
Why someone, especially Google, likes to spend the time and money to block YOU?
::)
cheers,
khabe
But OK,
Dont worry,

The World's Shortest Fairy Tale
Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
The girl said, 'NO!'
And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles
and went fishing and hunting and played golf a lot and
drank beer and scotch and left the toilet seat up and
farted whenever he wanted.
THE END
It was only a brief bug on googles end. The error message had nothing to do with the websites or your computer. If one thinks they're flawless then throw the stone. Otherwise, just accept that all companies eventually have problems.
I love google!

I hate google.......
I use Google and Google abuses me.
There sure is a lot of hate in this world. No wonder there are so many wars, murders, destruction of nature, abuse to the animal kingdom, prejudice, anti USA, anti this, anti that. I'm so grateful to live in the USA, the melting pot!
