Topic awaiting preservation: Is google hacked??

Have u tried this out ?...if u havent try it out and tell me wat ya think. Weird.

1) Go to Google.com;
2) Type in (but don't hit return): "weapons of mass destruction";
3) Hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button, instead of the normal "Google search" button;
4) Read what appears to be a normal error message carefully

hahahahah, good joke! BTW... Happy Birthday Google!!! 5 years!

Google hasn't exactly been hacked, it's just that the bogus error message is the first site listed on a google search and the "I'm feeling Lucky" button just takes you to the first site on the search page.

That 404 page has been around for a while now. I'm not sure how it made it to number 1 on google, but I've always admired those guys' sense of humour.

No...that's been around for a while. The weapons of mass destruction error message is famous across the net..been brought up here a few times.

And the reason you're recieving it is becuase the 'I'm feeling lucky' button simply loads up the first search result it comes across

Through stint of some very good google bombing it used to be that you could enter the search terms 'Go To Hell' and hit 'I'm feeling lucky' and it would load up the microsoft website.

Yeah, the guy found a way to artificially inflate PageRank. I'm not surprised, what with all the Google-bombing techniques nowadays...

Along those lines....

It's only after we've lost everything...
That we're free to do anything...

a quick look at the url will clearly tell you it has nothing to do with google....
as will the fact that the page is mocking an internet explorer message...

The number one ranking is pretty damn logical.
The page is online for ages and everyone links to it, the more links to a page the higher the google rating.
