Recently I have seen the following appended onto the Google search bar :zx=1756239204128&no_sw_cr=1

Anyone know what this is?

If you're just talking about the URL, there's really nothing to worry about. Google uses this stuff all the time.

This example is about Google not caching your search results. The "zx" is basically a random string, and "no_sw_cr" tells it not to use server-side caching.
