![[ Screenshot of Google search results ]](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M3DObvd7wVM/SYRld4NbxOI/AAAAAAAAVuQ/fzo8NO_3vpw/s400/google_bug.png "Note \"This site may harm your computer\" about its own site.")
This is a screen snapshot of a Google search I did this morning. Google was working fine only moments before, but then all search results started displaying “This site may harm your computer.” The links were directing to a warning page instead of the named site and later the warning page itself wasn't working, instead forwarding to a page that read “Forbidden. Your client does not have permission to get URL ...”To see how serious the problem was, I told Google to search for “malware” on its own site, and it reported that its own site may harm my computer!
One wonders if this is just an incompetent goof or if a hacker is having fun with Google's servers.

It seems to be back to normal, now.
I also have a Gmail account and I noticed that at about the same time, several email messages (including some from blogger.com) were falsely reported as phishing attempts.
