I am getting this very strange 403 error page when I click to download a
book with the following message:

    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.

    We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope we'll see you again on
Google.
