Mash Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Is anyone else experiencing problems with Google? Evry time I do a search now it gives me "this site may harm your computer" and when you click on the link you get an information screen and you can't go to the website from it, you have to type it in the address bar.It's only started doing it today.WTF?

55bloke Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Speaking of Google- on my computer, the bit at the top of this forum which briefly showed Google ads, is now just constantly showing a box which says THE WEBPAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED, I'm not bothered, as the ads were of no interest, but wondered why it is?

dollywobbler Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Ah, sounds like you need to ditch Internet Explorer, get Mozilla Firefox and then enjoy the ad-blocker add-in. I don't get any ads on this board. It's excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also painfully slow to get around on the web today. Is this just happening to me?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you see now is the equivalent of Autoshite having failed its MOT, so we thought it's quite fitting and left it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 My computer has been dead slow today too, and Firefox has caused the whole system to crash several times. It all seems to have settled down now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogweasel Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Been having grief too. Started yesterday when trying to run BBC I PLAYA, FF kept crashing.... tday it's been poop too. I assumed a glitch on my machine was the culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 It does sound rather like the whole internet has been broken and this Google problem was just another symptom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55bloke Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Yup, same here! I just thought it was coz it's computershite!! As for Mozzilla Firefox, the reason I never use it is coz the one time I tried, it caused the computer to have a mental breakdown!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
