    What the hell is this!!! I thought this was happening with my webpage only. Almost all cached pages are having this.

    Shawn take a look at this image attached.

    Its your toolbar flashing the message because google is loading in the DP forum to its cache. The toolbar thinks google is phishing by trying to look like DP I assume.

    No such thing in my toolbar. Since yesterday, I have been looking at cached versions of my webpage because all geocities.com pages are inaccessible here in India. But now, I'm getting this message.

    I also reported to Google about my webpage wrongly flagged as one.

    Regards,
    Dilip

    I believe mad4 hit the nail above. Nothing too dramatic happening as far as I'm concerned!

    Nothing dramatic happening? The way that message was put across will scare people out. Fahd, the first option on the left is "get me out of here"

    The tone in which the message is set is ridiculous. Very unprofessional in by way of setting options for the visitor.

    Dilip

    It's just a feature of the toolbar which can be turned off in the option section. The toolbar knows the page is from digital point but is seeing it somewhere that the page was not designed to be resulting in the toolbar thinking it's a phishing site.

    It's just trying to help :D

    Do many people look at the cached version of websites?

    People might be naive. The future generation is always a step ahead (smarter)
