When I trid it I did get a great deal of result. But most of them are
pages talking about the SQL injection attacks in articles.  I think
this case is not a good choice for bad guy already.

Talking about t filtering potential dangerious queries, I think it is
not fair to only ask google to do that and other search engine vedors
not. Anyway they have competations.

Besides, maybe to make a standard of malicous queries block for all
the search engine is necessary. Then CSIRT teams could provide
keywords in uniform format for their easy use.

Just my 2 cents.
