What's up with Google and "This site may harm your computer"??

[jsteph]

Hi all,
Every single thing I search on--the most safe and harmless searches--ALL of them say "This site may harm your computer" just under the main search-result link in google.

Anyone else see this and know why? Has google been hacked, are they doing a mass CYA due to some threat of lawsuit?
Thanks,
--Jim

Update...
This has now stopped. I'm guessing Google was doing some sort of system work and had mistakenly toggled some setting globally.

It was doing that for a couple hours this morning (Saturday)--it was also doing it on every other computer to which I could connect via VNC, VPN, RDP, LogMeIn.com, etc.--including my work computer, by family's, even a clients.

Every search from "Crayola Crayons" to IMDB, to my own personal website (which I can vouch has no harmful content whatsoever, nor does it have anything fancy that could possibly be construed as harmful)--they all had that warning.

So about 5 min. ago the warnings just stopped. I'm assuming the tech they had working on that has fixed it and is sweating it out hoping nobody noticed...
