MacMost Forum / Safari Malware Warning

I tried to visit a website (that I’ve never visited before) and safari gave me a Warning. I clicked the “Go Back” button, so I suppose I don’t have anything to worry about, right?

    If you clicked Go Back then you never went to the site to begin with. Safari looks up sites in a Google database and gives you the warning before it loads the site. See this episode:

    Oh, and chances are that the malware on the site was Windows-related anyway.
