09jan31_google.jpgJust in case you're wondering, no, the entire Internet has not been infected, Google's alarming notice in search results notwithstanding.

You can check out the geeky, snarky discussion over at slashdot.

This one's got "Tylenol®" written all over it...

Update: And now, just as quickly as it happened, all is well again. Nothing to see here. Move along.

Glad I got the screenshot when I did...

Update 2: ComputerWorld has the story. From teh Google itself on their blog, who acknowledge an error updating their list of bad sites, but point out that the criteria for the blacklist came from StopBadware.org. StopBadware also posted a damage-control note, which pointedly spells out just what they do for Google.

This just gets better and better.
