    this past week i have gotten 3 f'ing emails about google pretty much shitlisting my sites saying crap about malware or whatever

    "We recently discovered that some of your pages can cause users to be
    infected with malicious software. We have begun showing a warning page
    to users who visit these pages by clicking a search result on Google.com.
    Below are some example URLs on your site which can cause users to be
    infected (space inserted to prevent accidental clicking in case your
    mail client auto-links URLs):"

    I have only google ads on one of the sites, and yahoo ads on 2 of the other sites its saying i have malware on, i visit the pages and there aint nothing there to my knowledge wrong... so wtf is going on with google? sounds more like someone is reporting my sites for nothing to get them out of search results and google aint checking the sites personally to see theres nothing wrong..

    what am i sposed to do here? i have NO spyware, or activex, paid to install or any of that garbage on any of my sites..

    "Warning - visiting this web site may harm your computer!" when u actually try to click the link...

    I tried to follow the directions to get the site reviewed to get the malware notices removed but it gives this error

    "Oops!
    We couldn't do that because of an error. Please try again! "

    Looks like this is an increasingly common issue. Others who also apparently don't have any malware on their sites have had warnings shown in the SERPs.
