Warning---Google playing hardball

[CRAZY K]

Just noticed that on their searches they have placed a warning--this site may harm your computer--this includes mine and also Solitaire:eek: :eek:

Guess what those sites that pay them money are not affected.

There appears to be a procedure to get them to consider removing this notice, havent got time to investigate yet.

I wonder if it involves selling adverts---only in America:bang:

Pretty pathetic eh?

Marc J any comments--I have my strategy in place:D

Google appear to be having technical problems as it seems to apply to all searches. Suggest use another search engine such as http://search.aol.co.uk which is powered by Google until they get the problem resolved.

As said it seems to be a technical problem.

I wonder if they are going to spring this on us next week:eek:

Hopefully no one is searching for Discos or Barn Dances this afternoon:bang:

Perhaps you missed my point-im talking about punters looking for a Disco on Google, admittedly everyone except paying ads got the warning--hopefully punters are sharp enough to realise its a load of :Censored:

With so many errors in that post, was there any real point in singling out that one?

Yes Marc, because I have been relentlessly trying for months to make Damian understand the difference between fighting and thinking. Until he grasps that, there is little point in touching on more complex grammar and punctuation! Slowly, slowly... etc.
