Login Bug on Google this morning “Computer bot trying to login”

Saturday, January 31st, 2009

In addition to the “This site may harm your computer” warnings we’re seeing this morning on Google you may have experienced the login bug.

After seeing the “harm your computer” bug this morning I tried to login to my Google account. Google’s login page wouldn’t let me login because it thought I was a computer bot trying to hack their system. After typing in the verification code I was allowed to login to my account. Be persistent and the system will let you login this morning

Google has a major problem this morning “This site may harm your computer.”

Saturday, January 31st, 2009

“This site may harm your computer.”

That’s the message appearing under every web search result on Google as of about 10:00 AM EDT.

Roadfly.com has malware on it’s servers. This is a problem at Google. As of a few minutes ago I have confirmed with other people around the world and around the United States that they are seeing the same problem.

I do have a few contacts at Google and I’ve emailed one and have an engineer on IM right this minute.

Let’s hope Google solves this problem very quickly this morning.

–Update–

It looks like others are starting to notice the problem. TechCrunch just posted about the bug.

2010 Porsche Panamera Spy Video

Monday, January 5th, 2009

Our West Coast photographer Alex Stack caught the 2010 Porsche Panamera supercar out on the roads of San Francisco. Alex counted at least 13 test mules, many with differing configurations. The Panamera showcases Porsche’s design heritage by mixing parts of beloved models like the spoiler similar to that found on the 911, the Cayman-esque rear, the Cayenne lines where the seat pillar meets the rear fender, and of course, the signature Porsche nose. Alex also noticed a lot of key features on the 2010 Panamera like the adaptive headlights, Porsche’s trademark composite ceramic brake system, and the new PDK transmission on several of the mules, though he was not able to get much of a read on the interior.

Watch our 2010 Porsche Panamera Spy Video and let us know what you think of its design and Alex’s observations of this highly-anticipated German supercar.
