Did anyone else encounter this from google? Not sure if this is something specific in dillo's network behaviour...
We're sorry...

It's at least the second time I got this now, after issuing a search, seeing that there was a typo, resissuing. It is not that rare that this happens, but it is rare that google slaps me in the face for it ... and I _think_ it has been dillo before, too. But not sure. Anyhow, does someone know what is behind that "virus check"?

Hm... I don't have any cookie from 'em. Perhaps that is the key? Alrighty then, Thomas.

Yes. A few months ago Google locked me out of all blogspot.com sites with the same message. It lasted about a day and then stopped. I had not done anything to change my browsing software or habits for ages. I have always assumed they tweaked their spyware detection, screwed it up and started generating lots of false positives, then reverted the change. It certainly didn't have anything to do with my browsers. Regards, Jeremy Henty

I've been using Dillo with google for years, and hit that message yesterday for the first time. It made sense to me because the rejected query was just an email address, which looks like a spammer's check.

I don't think so, here it had worked perfectly w/o cookies for a long time. -- Cheers Jorge.-
