No, Your Website is not Malware!

If you tried a Google search this Sunday then you'd be forgiven for thinking that the whole of the web had turned into a nasty computer-harming virus-spreading hell hole.

Pretty much every result issued by Google search led users to a page warning them that their chosen site may harm their computer, barring entry onto said site.

Fortunately this was not the case!
