| can't find the news story now, hmmm, wonder if Google had that killed? Anyway, The warning was not to use Google today as it has a malicious Trojan attached to it.
Heard it on Fox News, so ,not an April Fools joke, just be careful today using Google | |

| Google prolly requested that Fox place the story in a blue poly cart. Fox prolly complied with the request from Googles legal team. | |
