site may harm your computer", even sites that I know are safe such as CNN and DU.

What kind of virus do I have and how do I get rid of it?

I can't click through to any of them, it takes me to a google page and won't let me proceed.

HELP!

Very weird! I expect some sort of subterfuge that we will be hearing about in depth today.

12. The problem seems to be with rewrite rules - I think they flipped a switch and now

URL rewrite rules are labeled dangerous - even on Wikipedia

(what am I talking about? shortcuts like www.me.com/whatever that actually go to www.me.com/index.php?title=whatever )

It'll probably be fixed by tomorrow.

they have so many servers and they catch it fast but even those you can get a virus. he says it is a real problem right now. we just have software that catches it all.
