I was looking up song lyrics today and noticed this. I do not see it posted yet so I am not sure if anyone else has noticed this.

This was first discussed ages ago, but only I saw this message for the first time a few days ago. I guess Google may have turned a knob, decided to get a bit tougher or just tweaked an algo.

Kaled.

Song lyrics... LOL I have been down that road. Seems like everyone with good lyrics site thinks you deserve the shaft or something... If not the popups or the frantically blinking ads, they are trying to download crap to you too.

I am glad googleis issuing advisories when it finds bad things in the code!

Yeah google!

I dont like censorship like Norton is doing with the serps as found here
[webmasterworld.com...]

But I do like what Google is doing when it comes to protecting us from malware.
