    There is definitely some big shuffling happening at big G. Neither it's PR system is stable, now... nor the search results....

    Wondering what google is upto? :confused:

    From Googles Blog:
    We maintain a list of such sites through both manual and automated methods. We work with a non-profit called StopBadware.org to come up with criteria for maintaining this list, and to provide simple processes for webmasters to remove their site from the list.

    Cool thanks

    The thing that's bugging me here is they say you can remove your site form the list but the damage my already be done,

    And if you can remove your site why the hell is it there in the 1st place? because they say so? hmmm big G :p is to big for its boots IMHO

    Good to see that they are working with StopBadware.org do you think they do exactly what they say ?
    or pick and chosse

    Malware, XSS, stuff like that. The sort of sites you actually do NOT want to be visiting.

    The error the other day is because their 'blacklist' was in the following format..

    http://blah.org
    http://lolvirus.com

    And.. some bright spark apparently left a / at the top of it, thus blocking any site that began with a http://

    :p
