Google Error: This site may harm your computer.
Anyone else seeing this error on every search result on Google today:

Which links to this page:

Malware Warning

Which says:

Quote:

Suggestions:
Return to the previous page and pick another result.
Try another search to find what you're looking for.
Or you can continue to Unix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia at your own risk. For detailed information about the problems we found, visit Google's Safe Browsing diagnostic page for this site.

Hard to believe Google could make such an error.

For the historic record, please post screenshots of the search page and the Google malware warning page.

Thanks.

Seems Google is fixing the error. They have blocked access to the old warning link as well:

Quote:
Google Error
Forbidden

Your client does not have permission to get URL /interstitial?url=http://www.thecepblog.com/2009/01/27/predicting-events-with-logisitic-regression/ from this server. (Client IP address: 203.146.158.5)
I should have taken more screenshots when I first saw the error
