Hmm. Blast from the past.

A year or so ago Brazilian hackers began automated searches for phpBB2 forums [phpbb.com] (searching in google.br for every site with `phpBB2 v 2.0.10` on the page) and hacking them - page 11 on the link has the exploit used.

Google instituted a check at it's end to try to stop it. Unfortunately this was defective, and for quite some time *any* search that included "index.php" caused the result detailed in message#1 of this thread. After a week, or two, G fixed it and it became part of G history.

Ah yes. Deja Vu, all over again.

PS (vaguely related) has anyone else noticed just how many so-called cache entries are not (cached, that is)?
