I quite often click on these "grey" results, as I know they will result in an attack. And they do often enough! Maybe Google could learn a thing or two about making their results more relevant than the criminal's??

Also Real Time Protection tool like MalwareBytes Pro is a must.It always block malicious IP before it even opens,this could be a FP in some cases but better to be safe than to be sorry later.

Even the most recent glimmer of Google moving out of Chinese main land shows us that powerful search engines that practically regulate all the info we receive from internet can and will protect their interest without regards to the impact of their absence .

It's completely logical and consistent development in the malware wars. It would be interesting to check on the duration of each individual 'workaround' by malware writers--how long it lasts before Google negates it. That would be a good indicator of the probability of infection for ordinary users. Of course, this would be no consolation for the unfortunate few who are infected while the malware 'workarounds' are functional. Great story!
