    Forgive my ignorance if this has been discussed before. Has anyone seen anything like this before when clicking on search results in Google?

    This has been going quite a while, althogh it used to have a more dramatic 'Get me out of here!' message.

    Good idea as long as it never gets applied to my sites!

    Hmm, didn't know that. Just remember seeing something about this on a CNN news ticker a week ago.

    I read somewhere that hackers & spammers have managed to get links into G's search that automatically install malware on your PC once clicked.

    Hence the reason for the new messages.

    Pity they're useless at actually doing anything :p

    Blogmaster, perhaps I'm confusing a separate warning that I see sometimes that says 'get me out of here' if google think the site is going to try and trick financial info out of you.

    Thought it was the same thing but on re-reading probably isn't.

    What URL were you trying to visit? You have the URL blocked out. Don't want to share it with us?
