    I'm searching via google search engine through my url address bar or "drag & drop" urls from websites to a new tab (Maxthon Browser).

    When I'm doing it, I'm getting a weird error from google search engine.

    I will need to enter a random code to be able and continue with the search process.

    You can check it here:
    http://www.google.co.il/sorry/?continue=http://www.google.com/search?q=test

    I wanted to know if others are getting this error when you are trying to search google via url address bar or some other option.

    I guess that google are checking my referrer and when I don't have it, they are redirecting me to the error 403 page :(

    Wait....I've just entered to google.com search engine manually and tried and search something and I also got this 403 error.

    Really weird !!! :eek:

    You computer has some type of tracking adware\malware, I'd run a scan on your computer.

    Yes, you are right. I had something.
    I've removed it and I'm not getting the error again ..not yet.
    I hope it's gone.

    Thanks!! (Why I didn't think about it?!) :D

    The error message pops up if you are querying Google too much (e.g. translator, PR checkers). It will go away automatically after a few hours.
