google is messin with me! go figure

[dalea]

Sittin here with my laptop surfin my favorites gun sites. EVERY time I clicked on a firearms related website that I looked up on google I was directed ro a screen that says the website im trying to access has viruses and is not safe to open. Down Range radio, Gun Rights Radio , Glock Talk etc... all of them. Google sure is going after us now. Is there a search engine that is sorta gun friendly?

Do you mean you're using Google's Chrome as a web viewer?

I just now tried Chrome and had no problems.   I suspect it's not the viewer but your anti-virus software.   Have you changed the settings lately?   Do you have the problem with Firefox or with IE?

No Alf, it is the little piss-ant fascists at google - they just blocked me from Gunbroker and I am using Firefox 3.0. The warning message comes from a google.com url - http://www.google.com/interstitial?url=http://www.gunbroker.com/. Somebody bombed the gun sites, just like bush was bombed when you put in the search phrase "massive failure" it directed you to President Bush's website. Someone has rigged the searches. Let's all bet on how long it will take the google fascists to fix this. I am guessing a week maybe?

Bastards!

Nuke 'em!!

I have never had this problem until this a.m.  Im using the latest version of Firefox, and a google toolbar. I guess that googles interpretation of the first ammendment is you can speak whatever you want as long as google aproves .

I'm using IE and having no problems at all.

Problem seems to be fixed - I can get to gunbroker.com in both Firefox 3.0 and IE 7.0

the GFs seriously need to fix their search methodology to prevent this from happening ever again to anything or anyone. Lucianne.com (conservative news/community board site) got hacked, someone installed malware, and google blacklisted them because of the hack.

I do believe this is also against the law, or a bunch of laws. Gee, wonder if bho's FBI will investigate???

I guess I don't understand what Google has to do with it. 

If you type "www.gunbroker.com" into firefox  how do you end up with Google.  UNLESS.... you've installed some Google Toolbar or allow Google to be some sort of default search engine........BAD BAD.

I have no foreign toolbars on my browsers.   I don't want Google, Yahoo, or MSN knowing where I go or what I read.   I turn off all automated search engines.   If I mistype a domain name then all I get is a page load error from FireFox.   All those handy toolbars are just another form of spyware.    Go "natural".   Go with a naked browser.

I am always bothered by people who want all the information...
