Pretty decent attack there. But they'll deny it.

2. Might not be an attack at all...
In fact, it probably isn't. Those messages on search results are triggered by some sort of flag. It looks like that flag was turning on for all search results.

A programming flaw of some sort. It appears that it has been corrected. Someone forgot to include some line of code that resets the flag to 0, I'm betting.

6. I seriously doubt it was a hack.
Just a bug or an upgrade gone bad.

5. I really freaked out and as a Catholic, I immediately began berating myself
for going to so many websites yesterday that I must have gotten a virus. Oh, guilt!
