google aclk 1x1 "error"

This seems to be a recent condition, but when selecting some (not all) links returned from a google search instead of the page being served I get a blank display and the tab shows "aclk 1x1 pixels" I've seen the same condition in Firefox.
I've made sure I'm in 32bit mode and clear the cache and reset Safari regularly. Any ideas as to whats up??

Mac Pro Desktop, Mac OS X (10.6.2), safari 4.0.4 intego AV 6.x

HI,

Clear Your Google History:

1. Go to the Safari Menu
2. Select Preferences
3. Select Autofill tab
4. Select the Edit button from the Other Forms Line
5. From the AutoFill list of sites select Google.com
6. Select Remove
7. Select Done

Relaunch Safari.

Carolyn 🙂

Thanks Carolyn but I don't have autofill set for any forms (IE Google is and was not listed). I also do a full reset of Safari (including the cache & google history(s)).
I think I should re mention I see a similar behavior in Firefox (same search criteria same links tried). I don't have this issue on my MBP (same OS version browsers)

I am having the same problem, and it seems to be related to Google sponsored links only.
I have tried the autofill hint, but it didn't fix the problem.
Maybe it is related to Snow Leopard. Perhaps there is a file in the Library that needs to be deleted.
