I have never encountered the problem, granted I never use any software like that. Interesting, so it only happens if you use the SERPs scanning software?

I've been using google since I learned how to use the internet. My brother wanted an apple iphone so I tried to search for it and maybe compare prices and then this warning came up. I was so alarmed because it says there might be spyware or something and I just bought an item online with my credit card. I'm using yahoo to be clarified of this issue but all the sites I stumbled into are webmaster territory and I can't understand what they're talking about. Some say it has to do with firefox (i'm using firefox and internet explorer and it's the same, can't access google), some say it's the one searching at fault because he is spamming whatever it is he is spamming. Any explanation? Do I have a spyware on my computer? First time it happened to me. I’ve been using google since I learned how to use the internet.

The message will stop, but first you have to stop running any SERPs checking software. It is against Google's TOS to use their system to run any programs that checks your website's positioning for specific search terms. I have stopped doing this, shortly after writing this post, and haven't received the Google warning since. Hope this helps! No it is not permanent.
