Anybody get this error on a Google query before?
Google wrote:We're sorry...
... but your query looks similar to automated requests from a computer virus or spyware application. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now.
We'll restore your access as quickly as possible, so try again soon. In the meantime, if you suspect that your computer or network has been infected, you might want to run a virus checker or spyware remover to make sure that your systems are free of viruses and other spurious software.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope we'll see you again on Google.
To continue searching, please type the characters you see below
The search I made was "2208WFP" on google.com |

Actually earlier today I was doing some MD5 hash checks based on an article I had read earlier in the day. Turns out, if you have a list of MD5 passwords you can check them in Google to show you what the passwords are. A big security issue. Anyway, about 2 hours later I came back and did a simple search and got that error. I'm pretty sure the two are related. |

Google thinks your IP (or, should I say, the IP you present to Google, which, ahem, might not be the same thing) has been compromised.
Try from your own IP and see what happens. |

I got that once a week or so ago, can't remember what I was searching for, but it certainly wasn't anything too special.
I figure its just some fluke thing and ignored it. |

just don't put any identifying information in there for where those passwords go. |

I don't use Tor, or just my plain 'ol ISP assigned IP. Usually I'm not doing anything that would require me to use such as service  |

I seem to remember a couple years ago, we intentionally tried to get that Google Error Message using MD5 passwords, or possibly looking for certain types of web cam strings (mayhaps a dstg thread). That is the only time I have ever seen it.
But it is not this thread:

and my Search-fu here is tryptophan-intolerant. |
