I tried to link to Avast Webforum through a normal google query and I got the Stop Badware block.
What is wrong with Google at the moment that it blocks all avast sites?
I experience this here with my local Dutch google page. Are other users also affected?
What is causing these general FP, as I assume it is?
Well I have just done a google search for avast forums and clicked on the one for forum.avast.com and arrived at the index page unmolested by google or stopbadware.org.
Interestingly I can’t reach stopbadware.org site I get a “document contains no date” error in firefox, so looks like it is getting some of its own medicine back
What does this notification look like (image) ?
I don’t know if I having blocked a number of google stuff in both noscript and adblock plus, perhaps it is blocking the notifications
It looks like they have fixed it now, it had a link under the main link saying something like;
“This site may harm your computer”
Even if you clicked the link to the site Google would pop up a window blocking it saying go back and try other search results and a little description on why they are doing it, even their own site got hit by it, someone mucked up at Google!
The error that hit Google for half an hour was extra slash put in error the StopBadware blocklist.
So Google was duped by their BlockBusters, just one tiny / and the Internet turns bad for half an hour.
