    I have googles official toolbar in firefox, and all searches from there are met with the 'We're sorry...' message :confused:

    Can anyone who has the toolbar please check to see if it is a general problem, or just my ip?

    I really dont see how this has anything to do with this thread..

    I believe you right click on it, and choose 'install'. or maybe I am thinking of another extension.

    I've had this happen twice now, lasted for the day. I'm thinking you may get blocked if you overuse you API for the day.

    If they retrict API usage then parsing the HTML page is the best option I guess.
