Google alerts for malware attacks...?

Friday January 2nd, 2009 at 14:03pm

I just got a google alert for my name: <> Clicked on the link and it took me to ann-arbor.4b.osa.pl/3.html - don’t go here as it’s a malware site. Sends you to a fake spyware remover site whilst claiming you are infected, which you doubtless will be if you use IE. This is the first time I’ve seen this kind of thing happen. I’m guessing Google should possibly filter malware sites from their alerts search results emails. Bad google! Seems someone’s lifting names from facebook for this kind of thing... Can you imagine the fun if this kind of thing becomes popular?
