Google Virus warning

[xTiNcTion]

Hi,

every time i look for the "phpbb" keyword using the integrated Google search box in Firefox 1.5 i see a Google virus warning (see screenshot)

We're sorry...
... but we can't process your request right now. A computer virus or spyware application is sending us automated requests, and it appears that your computer or network has been infected.

We'll restore your access as quickly as possible, so try again soon. In the meantime, you might want to run a virus checker or spyware remover to make sure that your computer is free of viruses and other spurious software.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope we'll see you again on Google.

first time it happened me was looking for "phpbb attachment mod". so i try different keyword and now i notice the message appears when i look for 'phpbb' plus any other keyword.

This no occurs when i go directly to google.com and make the search.

...uhmm... have to do a complete virus scan. but i did one some few days a go with: nod32, ewido, a2...SB, adware.... and online scan .... what else? no virus found.

have you see this message?

Wow that's strange

[Piratez]

yap, got the warning as well and no viruses here either.

on further testing, it appears that any keyword(s) containing "php" will generate that warning.

php works. bb works. phpbb does not.
You can fix it by not using the built-in google search in your browser.

Oh nevermind, you already figured that out I see

This happenned to me yesterday, for any word searching, but only when I use the Tor software.
So I use the word search through torified Firefox, I got the virus/spyware warning; Then use the same word search with FF directly connected to internet, I got the search result and no virus/spyware warning.

This happens for the search string "mysql php" thru Internet explorer 6. The first page loads but the subsequent pages throws the virus warnings.
