Google & INURL

OK people I need to know how many people are getting this...

Recreate this error by going to google then type:

inurl:somedomain.com

Then click like PAGE 2 down at the bottom.

You should be presented with this fine message:

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.

Not sure if its my net but i know 100% its not the PC and I have tried it from a few different IPS and hosts and same results.. all using different domains.

So whats everyones thoughts on this?

Yes, this is very strange indeed. Never saw a message like that before.

I can't see how or why they would do this.

My only thoughts are to stop like bots or peoples scripts form doing link pop checks etc etc..

But i think that is really not fair.

How can one gauge each other if one is working in the dark?
