    Everytime I search I get this message popup from Google.
    I was only search for Florence Nightingale after reading another members post :confused:

    Google Error

    I certainly don't have spyware, or other nasty things and i've deleted all Google cookies but still it pops up.
    Anyone else getting this ?

    Have you installed any toolbars or extensions lately?

    There are some that cause this...

    Disable them and try again.

    It also might be a virus; I had that happen a while ago, had to reformat in order to get rid of that and the spyware that snuck onto my computer..

    Well to be doubly sure I tried browsing Google through my server ( I'm running a server at home ) and got the same message.
    So not sure what's going on :confused:
    I just tried doing a search for "Shoes" and got same message.
