IE7 Blocking Google Image Search?

An anonymous reader writes, "I just tried a Google Image Search in IE7 for the first time. Whenever I click on an image, my browser tells me in big bold letters, "This is a reported phishing website." Try it yourself: make sure automatic phishing detection is turned on and do an (adorable) image search; click on one of the result thumbnails. MSN Live Image Search has no such issues. Insert Microsoft evil conspiracy theory here." I get this behavior under IE7, Win XP Pro, SP2, Parallels, Mac OS X.

If i were microsoft (shudder) I wouldn.t have it call home right away. I'd try to be clever enough to have it send me this stuff at a time when a connection to allyourbasebelongtous.microsoft.com would not be obvious.

It's a digital world now AnalogBoy. We will sure miss you and your phenomenal punditry..

it's not 1998 anymore.

It is not 1984 anymore either, though all we are really missing is the thought police. It is also not 2001 anymore, though one hears the date 9/11/2001 thrown about quite a bit. If I am not mistaken, it is also not 1969 anymore either; damn the end of the summer of LOVE!!!!

1) Post unsubstantiated story regarding any Microsoft product malfunctioning. 2) Slashdot engine automatically posts 3) you know the rest.

By "unsubstantiated" you presumably mean verified by kdwason, as evidenced by his "I get this behavior ..." line which clearly states that he verified the behavior. By "Slashot automatically posts" I assume you mean that kdawson has electrodes lodged in his brain which are controlled through Slashcode. Morons often make posts similar to yours, and well ... you know the rest.

Later lus3r!!!!
