Google and stopBadware.org team to create safer search

 StopBadware.org and Google have recently joined forces to provide protection against sites which contain malicious software. When you click on a link from the Google search engine, a warning will come up instead of loading the page which gives a report on the types of danger on the page. An example of the report can be found here.
This should help many people avoid downloading malicious software. Although it may be useful to browse through stopbadware.org's reports to see if any information is located for sites that you regularly visit if there is a possiblity that they could contain such applications.
