Google.co.uk hacked??

[BREWSTERS]

All it's showing is;

Welcome to njinx!

Hands up - who did it?

 

[Alien]

Looks OK here - your PC infected with something?

PS: Get a screenshot?

 

[Aegean]

Are you sure its not your own browser?

 

[Alien]

Various stuff on this it seems if you search G for "Welcome to njinx!".

 

[Ashton]

Could be:

A browser hijack on your end
A router issue
A firewall issue

Ok this end mate, i remember this happening to me sometime last year, i had some kind of virus and it was randomly taking me to a hijacked page. was a nightmare to get rid of as well.

 

[BREWSTERS]

It's back up for me now - it was nginx, not njinx as I put previously.

I'd do a virus and malware scan immediately. It's highly unlikely that this was an issue with google.

Aint read it, as im working but im sure it will offer some help

Clear your browser cache completely, shut it down and restart it, then see if you are still seeing it. Also see if it appears when you visit facebook.com or youtube.com

Maybe you have a proxy enabled:

nginx (pronounced “Engine-X”) is an open source Web server and a reverse proxy server for HTTP, SMTP, POP3 and IMAP protocols

Thanks guys - it had gone back to normal but I cleared everything and ran checks and all seems ok...bizarre!
