 From another list (I haven't bothered to check, myself):

"If you did a Google search between 6:30 a.m. PST and 7:25 a.m. PST
this morning, you likely saw that the message "This site may harm your
computer" accompanied each and every search result. This was clearly
an error, and we are very sorry for the inconvenience caused to our
users." --
