A Minor Google Glitch
Just in case you have a customer contact you saying that on Sunday morning they did a search, looking for your website and as a result Google informed them that “This site may harm your computer”, let them know that your site is fine. It was Google which had a problem.
It appears that during about a 40 minute period every search and every site associated with the search displayed this warning.

Gives you the full explanation.
According to Google ‘the errors began appearing between 6:27 a.m. and 6:40 a.m. and began disappearing between 7:10 and 7:25 a.m’ PST.
Also this may have affected users of gmail. Many, if not all, messages that came to gmail accounts during this period were diverted to the spam folder. Google have been working on a correction to have these message moved out of the spam folder and into the in box. But as a precaution, you may want to check the spam folder of gmail accounts.
