It didn't worry me when it appeared cos I knew any malicious scripts wouldn't affect me anyway.

It was annoying though :P

It was broken for 40 minutes.

It was down to human error apparently.

You do realize how slow it is? Ask is a waste of time as well. Searched "Sky Sports" because I'm lazy and it came up with Setanta.

There is absolutely no point on moving search engines over this tiny error which only lasted for a very short period of time

anywho, if you are looking for a search engine www.cuil.com is a good one, It was created by ex-employees of google

Noticed this as well. Was setting up a computer for someone and I typed in NOD32 in google and clicked the link and it reported it as a unsafe website... Then I noticed everything was marked as a unsafe website.

Speaking of search engines, did anyone elses AVG stop working after an update causing pre-millenium internet speeds? :P The link scanner AVG has was the cause it seems.

I got harrassed about Google failing, I got so many prods from people :/

Mine died after an update so Google was dead for me and my download speeds were 1k/** or whatever it was. Re-downloading AVG would of taken 11 hours :P Thankfully the link scanner could be turned off on firefox otherwise I'd still be waiting :D

Yahoo ain't as big as it used to be ;)

Cnet were talking about this on their podcast. It was caused by someone from the company they hire to do the filter making a typo in the list of websites that get filtered. They simply put a "/" on its own on one line, which means the root is filtered. In english, that means every site in the world get flagged up as unsafe. Every site... except youtube!
