Hey gang,

The most peculiar thing happened today.

I rebooted my computer and started Firefox up. When I searched for something 
with Google, every search result has a line with the words "This website 
might harm your computer" (in Norwegian, but words to that effect) added to 
it. When I click on the search result, I came to a Google warning page, and 
from there I cant click on.

There were links to Google support pages, but no way to reach the search 
result. I couldnt even google to find out what this thing was.

Then I went to see "Australia" (the film) with my girlfriend and came back a 
few hours later. Everything was back to normal! And on Wikipedia they made 
this entry:

Hmm.....
