Strange, I was going to search google today and look what message came up Rolling Eyes

We're sorry...

... but we can't process your request right now. A computer virus or spyware application is sending us automated requests, and it appears that your computer or network has been infected.

We'll restore your access as quickly as possible, so try again soon. In the meantime, you might want to run a virus checker or spyware remover to make sure that your computer is free of viruses and other spurious software.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope we'll see you again on Google.

Your computer is most likely not infected. I searched google off of my mom's NetBSD box and got that same message. I think it just checks IP ranges and if you're in one that has been tagged as infected, it'll make all those IPs do that image verification thing, just to be safe. It's annoying, but nothing to worry about.
