Virus Warning from Google

    here in Germany I just receive VIRUS WARNINGS from Google after typing in a search query. They say that my network/PC is infected with a virus and that the results are available. At the bottom there is a capcha box which i need to activate before being forwarded to another google database center.

    Anyone know what this means. I know Google cant scan my pc for viruses or is this a hack attack on Google ?

    Do you have dynamic IP? or is your IP used by someone else? Or did you use some tool to make automated google queries?

    They put that up if it looks like you do too many searches too fast.

    Are you using any scripts that pass trafic through google without using their API ? or any automated SEO checking software ?

    I got one the other day that said something to the effect that "the url I am looking for has been deemed unsafe" (paraphrased from memory) and I should be aware of that..blah blah.

    Well if You are getting those warnings in search result only under some specific websites .. then
    http://ankitrawat.com/blog/remove-google-search-warning-message/ This might be helpful for you !!
    but if you are getting these warnings on all pages and results then this might be some king of virus attack. Formatting your System will be a perfect solution.
