Subject: Google 403 error pages


> In the last few days..I have been encountering, on and off, Google 403
> pages while using the Tor network for Google searches. I'm not sure if
> Google is perhaps, blocking just some exit nodes or the Tor network, in
> general.
>
> If I switch to using no proxy and run the same search, I do not get the
> error page. Hmm.. also, It seems that if I wait or force the the exit
> node to change I don't get the error page. Could it be that some exit
> nodes (some more than other's)are 'bombing' Google with requests? Has
> anyone else encountered this?
>
> -BTW- Here's the page. It has a "verify the text below" box to continue
> searching. Well, somethings going on here. Not quite sure what, yet.
