People can get onto pages that require your user and pass since it caches all the web pages you visit for other people. A Big no-no.

EDIT: Before anyone jumps down my throat if this is wrong - I got it from some source, so blame them.

Comrade Badger posted the article about the problems with it here

Basically, google saves everything you look at, so anyone can look at your instant messages, private messages, emails, secret forums, private access areas etc because you saved them online. Bad news, big security risks.

Did you know alot of Google is made up of former Microsoft employs? Microsoft and Google are actually being quite competitive. Microsoft has lost about 100 good employs to Google.
As Bill said,
"The reason Google is going to be so hard to fight is because they remind us of ourselves"
(Or something similar).
But in a magazine I read a 5 page article about Microsoft and Google.
Just wait....
OSoogle.
or GooOS
