    Hi all,
    Wondering has anybody had a similar experience. Was just searching on google and a page appeared stating it could not continue my search as I may have a virus. Enter this code and continue. This was quite frightening.
    I've checked my computer and my spyware indicates the PC is clean.

    The message below is what appears.

    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.

    Hello

    Please download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) and save it to your Desktop.
    • Close all other windows before proceeding.
    • Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
    • If your anti-virus or firewall complains, please allow this script to run as it is not malicious.
    • When it has finished, dss will open two Notepads main.txt and extra.txt -- please copy (CTRL+A and then CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your next reply.

    sorry to bring up an oldish topic, but by the sounds of it, it reported that based on what you were searching for it could not process your search?

    did you do ur scan? did anything happen, did it find anything?

    what was the search for?
