UPDATE: Todd Gardner suggests this problem was caused by an outage at StopBadware.org. If so, Google needs to rethink its failsafe strategy for this data source.

UPDATE 2: Google seems to be working normally again.

UPDATE 3: According to a comment on this post by CNET user stopbadware, manager of StopBadware.org, and a blog post on that site titled Google glitch causes confusion, the problem was not with StopBadware.org.

UPDATE 4: According to this post on the official Google blog site by Marissa Mayer, Google VP of Search Products & User Experience, the problem was caused by a bad update to Google's list of malware-infected websites. As the post says, "the URL of '/' was mistakenly checked in as a value to the file and '/' expands to all URLs."
