Google Adds New Security Features
View at Digital-Lifestyles.info
Search engine giants Google have introduced a new feature which alerts punters about search results that could potentially lead them to dodgy sites with malicious code.
Using data from the Stop Badware Coalition - a non-profit organisation who also enjoy support from Sun Microsystems and Chinese PC maker Lenovo - Google will now flag up sites that could be hosting malicious software.
Whenever a suspect link is clicked on from Google's search engine results, punters will be whisked off to a warning page which says, 'Warning - the site you are about to visit may harm your computer!'
If that hasn't already scared the bejesus out of surfers, the page suggests that users trot along to StopBadware.org in double quick time and, 'learn more about malware and how to protect yourself.'
