If you search for the word "keywords" the links in the results pages trigger a SQL Injection attack message:

Looks like it has something to do with the "KW=keywords" part. Take that off and it works fine. Looks like some more tweaking of the SQL Injection detections scripts is in order.

This will be looked into s there doesn't appear to be a quick fix for this if your keywords to highlight contain syntax that could be used in an SQL Injection.
