This search engine may harm your sanity.

How can I stop every Google search result being flagged as "This site may harm your computer"?

Since this morning, every Google search I perform is flagged with the anti-badware "This site may harm your computer" warning.

Here, for example, is a screenshot of what happens when I search for the term "Google".

I've resetted everything on my browser (and used different browsers), rebooted my Mac, and signing in and out of my Google account to no avail.

See one thread up. Seems to be a problem with the Goog.

Best answer: Its doing the same for me and a load of people over on coding horror, I think Google is having a few issues today, if you search for 'Google' they even flag themselves - clusty search is a handy standby until they get it fixed
