Beware of Google's Evil Twin!

[system32_freak]

If you use google (which you probably use hundreds of times everyday) then beware you don't add a 'k' to the URL so that it would be gookle.com instead of google.com

WARNING: Do Not Try This At Home (Or anywhere else for that matter)

Never ever goto this URL:
(I will discard the 'www' in case someone clicks on the url by mistake)

googkle.com

If you do your system will be infected with all sorts of viruses and other computer disasters.

Please do not try to even open this page, I'm sure you don't want to put your computer under risk.

So how do you know?
Or is it an old wives tale doing the rounds

 

[system32_freak]

ًWell the only to find is by someone risking their computer which is possible if they are going to format their computer

I got the news from a friend so I don't have that much of details, sorry!

Didnt do anything

it just sent me to a car advert, nothing on the firewall logs, AV hasn't picked anything up nor the registry monitor ? think its just a rumour

Nothing can install on your computer with FireFox / IE without it prompting you first, personally i have javascript/activex control turned on, so only if i specifically allow the site will it begin parsing embeded scripts.
